KIS
(acronym)
Definition:
Keep It Simple. Used at the end of a question or request to politely ask for a clear, brief, and straightforward explanation or answer.
Usage:
“Why is the sky blue? KIS”
“How do computers work? KIS”
“Explain this recipe, KIS.”
Origin:
Derived from KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid), but without the last word to avoid sounding rude. Designed as a kinder, clearer way to request simplicity in communication.
Why use it?
Encourages short, simple answers.
Avoids condescension of older acronyms.
Fits naturally at the end of questions or statements worldwide.
ChatGPT says:
Why KIS is different — and better in some ways:
TL;DR usually follows a long explanation; KIS can guide the response before it happens.
ELI5 asks for clarity but assumes a lack of knowledge; KIS just asks for simplicity—without assuming anything about the asker.
KIS is gentle, universal, and proactive. You’re asking for clarity and brevity without being blunt or ironic.
