Hits different: Sometimes something is so awesome that it impacts you or inspires you on a whole new level. For example, "Your drip (outfit) is next level man."ġ1. "Drip" refers to your look or style, particularly when it’s considered extremely fashionable or sexy (kind of like a newer version of swag). Drip: During previous generations, drip was slang for “an unattractive, boring, or colourless person.” But now if someone mentions the word, it’s actually a good thing. Probably with time, cheugy itself may be 'cheugy' as slang keeps changing with time.ġ0. Cheugy: Are you cool or are you cheugy? This word, used to describe “uncool” things that are either out of style or trying too hard to be in style, is believed to have been coined in 2013. "No cap," then, has evolved as another way of saying “no lie” or “for real.” Although it’s currently popular with Gen Z, this phrase was mostly influenced by hip-hop culture.ĩ. Cap/No cap: Did you know that "to cap" about something means “to brag, exaggerate, or lie” about it in Black slang? This meaning dates all the way back to at least the early 1900s. For instance, if your friend sends you a hilarious reel, then you can respond with, "This video is sending me (skull emoji)."Ĩ. Sending me: When someone or something makes you laugh so hard to the point where you're wheezing or about to die, try saying, “Sending me.” It could also be used for reactions like excitement, joy, or annoyance. If your friends ask, "How is the food?" You can reply along the lines of “Yeah dude, the food be bussin’,” a.k.a. “Bussin’” can be used for hotels or cars, but most use it for food. Bussin’: If you want to say something is really good, use this Gen-Z slang word. Just like the phrase "I swear to God" or "I swear on my mom/dad," "On God" sort of enforces the idea on us that the other person is actually telling the truth.Ħ. On God: Or as my brother would say in text: "Ong, ong" which simply means telling the truth. Say for instance if your friend posts a cool dance routine, you can comment “Slaaayyyy.” Other common usages of this word are "Big Slay" or "Slaying."ĥ. It is simply another way of saying “killing it,” be it in fashion, confidence, or performance. Slay: To “slay” means to do a spectacular job. For instance, "Maddy tried to rizz up Tina." or "Damn bro, he got rizz."Ĥ. So to say someone has rizz means that they have got 'game,' or has charming qualities or is a smooth talker especially while flirting. Rizz: One of the best words I learnt was this and apparently it's short for charisma.
