jones

Share definition
a verb that means to crave something strongly, usually said in a construct with a participle (e.g. "to be jonesing for") and often pronounced without the 'g' at the end (e.g. "to be jonesin' for").

Sometimes the "for" is foregone. Usually a phrase emphasizing being in the moment is included, such as "right now" for the present, or "at that time", "right then" for the past. In past, present or future constructions, when said in a negative construction "just yet" is also used occasionally.
I'm really jonesing for a coffee right now.
I'm really jonesin' a cigarette right now.
I just got over being sick for a week. I'd like to go to the concert, but I'm not jonesin' to be out in public just yet.
