Talk Slay to Me, Baddie: The Slanguage You Need to Know RN ✨
Let’s be real for a sec.
If you’ve opened TikTok, scrolled Instagram, or dared to enter a group chat recently, chances are you’ve been verbally drop-kicked by words like delulu, rizz, and mid.
You paused. You blinked. You wondered if English had decided to uninstall itself.
Spoiler: it didn’t. It just upgraded... with ✨vibes✨.
Welcome to the era where we don’t talk—we serve. We eat. We slay.
This is not your grandma’s dictionary. This is the Slaycabulary™, where every word is a mood, a meme, and occasionally a red flag.
Ready to speak fluent ✨internet✨? Let’s dive in.
🥄 Ate (and Left No Crumbs)
Meaning: Absolutely crushed it. Like, no leftovers.
📣 Example: “She wore that dress to brunch and ate. The rest of us were just side dishes.”
This is the highest form of praise. Think Beyoncé at the Super Bowl. Think peak drama. If someone tells you that you ate, you better twirl.
🤯 Delulu
Meaning: Delusional—but like, ✨cute✨ delusional.
📣 Example: “Still believing my situationship is endgame. I’m fully delulu, and I love that for me.”
Delulu is the coping mechanism of a generation. It's hope wrapped in glitter, dipped in denial, and served with a side of chaos. Delicious.
💅 It’s Giving…
Meaning: It’s serving the energy of.
📣 Example: “Your outfit is giving ‘rich aunt who mysteriously owns a yacht’ and I’m obsessed.”
“It’s giving” is the ultimate vibe-check tool. It doesn’t explain; it embodies. It’s how you say everything with two words and a raised brow.
💤 Mid
Meaning: Meh. Average. Boring. Flat soda energy.
📣 Example: “That new Marvel movie? Kinda mid. I’d rather rewatch Shrek 2.”
Mid is not mean. Mid is honest. Mid is the modern “meh,” but with bite. If it doesn’t slap, it’s mid. Simple math.
🤢 Ick
Meaning: That one tiny thing that gives you full-body cringe.
📣 Example: “He said ‘nom nom nom’ while eating pasta. Major ick.”
You can love someone with your entire soul… until they pronounce “salmon” with the L. Then it’s over. That’s the power of the ick.
😏 Rizz
Meaning: Charisma. Game. Flirty wizardry.
📣 Example: “He walked in with no rizz and still pulled. That’s black magic.”
Rizz is short for “charisma,” but hotter. If you’ve got it, you’re a walking thirst trap. If you don’t… sorry king, but try again.
🔥 Slaps
Meaning: So good it physically hits.
📣 Example: “This playlist slaps harder than Monday depression.”
Food, music, memes—if it slaps, it delivers. Slaps is the opposite of mid. Slaps is certified banger energy.
🎬 Main Character
Meaning: The star of the show. Center of the plot. The moment.
📣 Example: “Me strutting through Target with iced coffee like the main character I was born to be.”
Main character energy means the spotlight follows you. Even if you're crying in the rain, it’s cinematic.
🧮 Girl Math
Meaning: Financial logic that makes zero sense but feels so right.
📣 Example: “If I bought it with store credit, technically I got paid to shop. Girl math.”
Don’t fight girl math. Embrace it. Because $1000 spent on 4 items = only $250 per item = basically free.
🧃 Canon Event
Meaning: A life moment that had to happen for your character arc.
📣 Example: “Her texting her ex again? That was a canon event. We had to let it unfold.”
Canon events are like embarrassing flashbacks with plot relevance. Painful, yes. Avoidable? Never. Growth? Always.
🧠 Fun Fact: This Isn’t Just Slang—It’s a Language Revolution
This new talk isn’t just sass—it’s survival.
In an age where we're all memes in motion, this slanguage does three genius things:
Speeds things up – Why write a paragraph when “it's giving” gets the job done?
Adds flavor – These words drip with personality.
Builds community – If you know, you know. And if you don’t? You will now.
It’s not lazy; it’s efficient. It’s expressive. It’s like texting, but with ✨performance art✨.
🎤 TL;DR: The Internet Talks Like This Now. Join In or Get Mid
Whether you’re a rizz god, a delulu queen, or just someone trying to decode why a TikTok comment said “he ick’d me out,”
just know—this slanguage is the glitter glue holding chaotic conversations together.
So next time your friend says,
“Ugh I spent ₹2000 on candles but they slay, so it’s giving self-care. Girl math.”
Don’t question it. Just nod, sip your iced matcha, and whisper…
“Periodt.” 💅
PS: If this blog ate and left no crumbs, go share it with your fellow internet linguists.
If you thought it was mid... we’ll pretend it was a canon event.
