greeting

A universal greeting meaning ‘hello,’ ‘what are you doing,’ and ‘please don’t make this awkward.’

“What’s good, man?”

A word that covers 75% of American communication. Greeting, exclamation, compliment, insult—context does all the heavy lifting.

“Dude, that test was evil.”

Universal male greeting, also applicable to women, pets, and inanimate objects when emotions are high. Bro is a lifestyle, not a gender.

“Bro, the line for tacos is insane.”
