Slang terms are quite popular in Gen Z because they talk less and use these terms to communicate more. They have literally found an alternate word for every sentence, and that is exactly how they express their emotions in the shortest possible way. There are a few slang terms that are known, but they are not that popular, and not everyone uses them quite often. But then there are a few slang terms that have taken the internet by storm because every person you meet, no matter which generation they are, already knows about it.
Today, we are going to talk about one of those slang words that gained immense popularity, and you have heard it at least once from every person that you meet. Yes, we are talking about the slang known as “Sus”. We will get into the in-depth details of this slang so you know everything about it, if you do not already.
The slang term “Sus” is quite popular, and the meaning of this slang is also clear from the word itself. The exact meaning of this slang is suspicious or suspect. This means that whenever there is a person whom people are suspicious of, they use this slang term for them. This slang term gained extreme popularity between the years 2020-2023 because of various reasons that we are going to discuss below.
This slang also has another meaning, “suspect”, but it goes in the same way, and people use this slang whenever a person is thought to be untrustworthy. People started to use it randomly, even when it did not really make any sense, when the slang became famous, just to stay in the trend. Let’s get into more details and know about where this slang came from.
Everyone is well aware of the times of COVID-19, and there were a few things that gained so much popularity during that time. At the same time, there was a game known as “Among Us” that gained just as much popularity, and everyone played this game on their mobile phones or their computers all the time. In that game, you had to find a person who was named as “sus,” meaning suspicious.
Because the game was extremely popular and everyone knew about it, the slang “sus” also became just as famous, and people really got to learn this slang term. Every time people think there is an impostor in any way in the group, they try to call them “Sus”.
There are still a few people who do not know what the slang is and how we are going to use it, so we are going to make it easy for them. We are going to give a few examples that will explain to them how they can use this slang.
These are some of the common examples of slang that you can use every time you find somebody who you think is guilty of something. You can also use this slang term for a weird activity that you do not find normal.
One thing that comes with slang terms is that when they gain popularity, they start to be overused. The same happens with the slang term “sus.” People started to use it randomly, even when it was not relatable to the situation, and that really made it sound useless.
Every meme you would see and every person you would meet was using this slang term, even when it was extremely irrelevant. This eventually makes the slang term start to look really annoying, and it actually starts to lose its original punch.
Slang terms are extremely fun when they are used in conversations between people because they sound quirky and you enjoy talking to people using them. These slang terms also make it easy to communicate because you do not really have to explain much, and you just use one term and the whole meaning is automatically explained. But the problem that comes with the slang terms is that they start to be overused, and they eventually lose their original meaning.
Always make sure that you are not overusing any slang because it will also make you look like a wannabe and “sus.”
