Millennial Slang Terms on Way-back Wednesday

have your heard my mixtape.jpg

Normally on Wednesdays we go back into our vault to play some of the hits from the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s, and of course we did during our 8 o’clock hour.  But we also discussed some modern things on today’s show, primarily focusing on the vocabulary of the newest generation, Millennials.  He are some of the terms we discussed.

Keep it 100 – This term refers to “keeping it 100%”, this means you are acting in a way that is true to yourself, essentially being genuine.

Hundo P – This term also refers to 100%, but is used in agreement with a statement.  For example if someone asked you if you liked the chicken, you might say “Hundo P, this chicken is delicious.”

Suh – It is a combination of “sup” and “huh.”  It is used as a greeting to express both confusion and interest.

Trill – This one is another combination.  It simply means “true” and “real.”  True + Real = Trill

Goat – An acronym that stands for the “Greatest Of All Time.”  Used a lot in sports discussion.

Salty – Being Salty means that you are bitter or angry, normally about an event that happened in the past that you haven’t quite gotten over.

Low Key – Similar to the phrase “on the down low.”  It mean’s this is a topic that you might not want everyone to know, a guilty pleasure of sorts.

We hope some of these definitions help you out when one of your kids says something to you and you are not quite sure what they meant.  Have an excellent Wednesday and “keep it 100!”
