Etymology of HIP HIPSTER

The term "hip" originates from African-American Vernacular English (AAVE) and dates back to the early 20th century. It originally meant "aware" or "in the know" and was associated with certain aspects of the jazz and blues culture.

"Hipster", on the other hand, has a different origin and evolved separately. It initially referred to a subculture that emerged in the 1940s, characterized by non-conformity, alternative fashion, and interest in art and music outside of the mainstream. The term was likely derived from "hep" or "hepcat", which were also used to describe individuals with a similar cultural inclination.

The modern usage of "hipster" emerged in the early 2000s to describe a specific subculture known for its counter-cultural fashion, appreciation for indie music and art, and an emphasis on authenticity and uniqueness.
