"Adminisplain" is a portmanteau combining "administrate" or "administrator" and "explain," much like how "mansplain" is derived from "man" and "explain." The word "adminisplain" can be defined as follows:
Adminisplain (verb): The act of an administrator, boss, or managerial figure condescendingly explaining something to employees or subordinates who are already highly knowledgeable or skilled in their specific field of expertise. This often implies that the explainer underestimates the expertise of the listener or feels the need to assert authority or control in a situation where it may be unnecessary or unwelcome.

I felt completely adminisplained during the meeting today when my manager went over the basics of our project, despite our team's extensive experience in this field.

Get the Amina mug.Amin is the most likable Gen Z kid you’ll ever meet even when he’s cursing like a drunken sailor. Often smaller in stature but a giant in wits and abilities. Pulls hoes of all shapes and sizes with his sandy hair and seductive winking. Dudes named Amin are likely to be masters of everything they try, so much so that they may be a big head, but there’s no denying they know their shit. Criticizing him is a bad idea as he will tell you to fuck off in no uncertain terms. You will see Amin in a fast car, or some kind of electric bike - probably a Razor dirt bike he modified for completely illegally high speeds - at all times. Don’t challenge him to a race or he will positively embarrass your ass.
Person A: “Holy shit, what was that that just came by and embarrassed my Lambo?”
Person B: “Oh that’s Amin, I guess he tried putting that 200 amp controller in his Razor”
