liek

An intentional misspelling of the word "like" that adds humour, emphasis, or personality to a sentence, often used online for dramatic or comedic effect

Think of it as: saying like in a drawn-out, exaggerated way.
Imagine speaking in cursive, prolonging the pronunciation like "liiiieeeck." or saying is short and sweet in a hyper cuter way <3

pronounce long:
"It's hard to explain, but when I saw his face I was liek, why he kinda look like the Pringles man."

pronounce short:
bf: I got you this fruit
you: I liek :)
