Schway
Schway
1. (adj.*) A word to use when something is astonishingly cool, fashionable, or popular.
This word really needs no definition, it means exactly what it sounds like and is known in the majority of languages and cultures around the world. (*Also used as an interjection.)
Generally, you may be referred to as "schway" if you roll up to the beach and hop out of your authentic, mint condition 1970's Mystery Machine with a cigar and aviators. This would be accomplished with a simple "...Schwayy...." hiss among groups of young adults. In order to know if you were actually schway, the "schway" should be heard relatively far away. In general, the formula is 5 feet/young adult*1.012^2

Side note: A former accepted usage of "schway" (deprecated in the modern 2013 usage of "schway") is a response someone gives if they don't care what you're talking about. This has been deemed as "just sarcasm" and may be why schway is sometimes INCORRECTLY used or interpreted in non-unanimously awesome situations.)
