Word

What people say when they are extremely impressed with a rap, prose, set of lines, speech, or any other type of verbal media which is pleasing to the ear, they can ‘vibe’ with, they empathize with, or can completely relate to. This usually is a drawn-out and higher pitch sound that is made independently immediately following the awesome thing that someone says. It is pronounced like this - “wuuuuuuurrd!”. Traditionally, black Americans in rural underprivileged and ghetto neighborhoods have been known to say this after someone has shown off a great talent or finished a roasting hot stanza of a rap song impromptu. Usually an older teenager will say this who believes he is cool and wants to get in favor with the other boy which has talent.

Boy 1: “I gonna fuck you in the anus
Believe me that’s not too hanus

Spend my money drinking shots
I slay of all your thots

Your success is mine
I win it on the flip of a dime
You try to beat me all the time
But your fat ass ain’t nothin”

Boy 2: “WORD!!! That was fire homie keep goin man I can vibe with this shit!”

Get the Word mug.

word burner

Quite simply, a word burner is someone or some group who wants to ban words they disagree with. They will attempt to ban words outright or they will attempt to change the words meaning, claiming only they know the meaning of words.

Similar to the book burners of the past and present, word burning is a more insidious form of censorship. Not allowing you to read something is one thing, not allowing you to say something is a whole new ball game.

Say the wrong word and a word burner will correct you on the spot.
