@lp0_on_fire@social.linux.pizza Yes, I hesitated with "really easy", a safer option, but I wanted something a bit more original for her way to speak. I've heard "super easy" multiple times on Youtube videos. Esp. as a catch phrase for Ryan George's Pitch Meetings series on the Screen Rant channel, a Canadian writer and actor/comedian. Maybe it's a Canadian expression?

@davidrevoy@framapiaf.org, possibly, but it seems like a USA thing to me which is very much finding its way… seemingly everywhere else. Personally, if there's “super easy”, why not also “sub easy” (which badly needs a hyphen) and the like too… https://www.vocabulary.com/articles/dictionary/its-an-adjective-its-an-adverb-its-super/ https://www.reddit.com/r/linguistics/comments/u5k4ta/american_english_anyone_notice_people_using_super/ and others (from search results for “origin of super instead of very”).
