The Internet term "youcake" means "sick". The original meaning of "oil cake" is a kind of food. Because the word has the same pronunciation as "sick", it is often used to refer to "sick" on the Internet.

The word "youcake" is often used to curse people on the Internet, and it often appears in emoticons or comments on major Internet and video platforms. There are also some netizens who add the words "不吃" before and after "youcake", which is homophonic with "whether". For example, "You can't eat fried cakes" means "Is it true that you are sick?"

Irregular phenomena in Internet terms:

1. Breaking existing grammatical rules or changing the relationship between form, sound and meaning of existing words, such as "XX control, dinosaur, trench, 666" wait.

2. Make up new words, such as "face value", "white and rich beauty", "happy and prosperous", "people cannot be broken even if they are difficult", etc.

3. Mixed use of graphics, symbols, foreign words, etc. Adding -ing after a Chinese verb means doing something, and using "hold" means persisting, etc.

4. There is another phenomenon of non-standardization of Internet language, which is the problem of standard Chinese translation of network and computer terms. The main reason is the lack of unified translation standards. Folks will use some "vulgar" translations, such as "E- Mail" is translated as "Yimeier", and "download" is translated as "Dang".
