A dance move where you put up your arm to your face, like you're sneezing. Your other arm goes the opposite way when you dab. You just hold up that arm. This dance move was created in Atlanta, Georgia.

a stupid-ass "dance move" that requires you to put your head down into your arm and raise your other arm (must have the gay-ass music people listen to these days)

Nothing you need to worry about we left this word back in 2017 with all the other cringey kids that did it.

A dab is the reason why no one can sneeze anymore without being accused of doing a dance made by illiterate middle aged rappers or 12 year old fuckbois. To do the "the dab" one must put one hand up in a "sneezing" position in front of the nose and one down pointed. The only good thing about this dance is now you can smell yourself in public without being ridiculed.
