There are so many slang words, phrases, and emojis that...
Abow is a popular slang word to express shock or disbelief.
While the origins of “abow” are up for debate, many people believe that it’s a Swedish slang word for “wow” or “damn.” It became mainstream on TikTok because of the song "Blow the Whistle" by 810Smoke, which has been used in the background of 10,000+ videos.
An accountant refers to a sex worker or stripper.
This slang term comes from a viral audio by TikTok user @rockysroad, who created a video explaining that he calls himself an accountant to avoid revealing what he does for a living. Ever since, an “accountant” has been a popular way for people in the sex industry to reveal their professions, whether they work in pornography, sell content on OnlyFans, or serve as sugar babies.
“My family asking me what I’m doing after college: I’m an accountant.”
“Me explaining my source of income to my friends: I’m an accountant.”
This acronym stands for “Brazilian Butt Lift.”
The BBL is a popular cosmetic procedure where a surgeon moves fat from one area of the body to the butt, making it look larger. On TikTok, many users post before and after videos to show off their results, while others use the term to discuss celebrities who may have gotten work done.
“Do you think Jennifer Lopez had a BBL?”
“I can’t believe she got a BBL over the summer.”
Being the CEO of something means you’re the best at that thing.
The “thing” is usually a random or trivial field, but it can be a legitimate area of expertise when you use the phrase to compliment someone. If you refer to yourself as the CEO of something, it can be used in a sarcastic way.
“I’m the CEO of self-sabotage.”
“She’s the CEO of murder mystery parties.”
DND usually stands for “do not disturb.”
People use this abbreviation when they don’t wish to be bothered. It communicates that they’re busy (or in need of alone time), so try not to contact them until they let you know they’re available.
“My exam is in 10 minutes, DND🤫”
“I’m going to be on vacation until next Friday, so DND.”
The slang word “drag” is often used to roast or criticize someone.
Depending on the context, the term can be perceived as a joke, especially if the person on the receiving end is acting weird or wearing something unfashionable. However, it can also refer to someone getting embarrassed in public.
“Jack, you’re just asking to be dragged with those shorts on.”
“I felt so bad for her. The coach was dragging her in front of the entire team.”
Drip refers to someone’s clothes as cool or fashionable.
It’s often used to describe clothes, shoes, and jewelry, but it can also refer to how someone carries themself. If you see someone in a stylish outfit (or they just radiate confidence), you could
by saying they have drip.
“Did you see his chain? Bro had some serious drip!”
“Looking fly in those dunks, Chris.”
“Came through dripping in gold💸”
Extra is another way of saying over-the-top.
If someone calls you “extra,” it means you’re being overly dramatic or doing more than what the situation calls for, like if someone goes to the doctor because they have a minor cough. Or, they turn in a 20-page paper when only 10 pages were required. It can be said in a serious or loving way, depending on the relationship between the people involved.
“Can you believe it? She showed up to the airport in a limo. She’s so extra.”
“He started yelling at his girlfriend because she stole one fry…Talk about being extra!”
Finna is a contraction of the phrase “fixing to.”
Commonly used in the South, this slang word is another way to express that you’re about to do something. It’s used online and in casual conversation, especially if the speaker has plans in the near future. Instead of saying, “I’m fixing to go to the store,” for instance, you could say, “I’m finna go to the store.”
“I’m so happy it’s Friday. I’m finna sleep all weekend long.”
“I’m finna make dinner right now, so let’s meet up in like 2 hours.”
