p'wned, also see owned.

To p'wn is to own someone although it has a more elevated level making the statement more harsh. This word came around after an accidental typo of the word 'owned' and has since embedded itself into our online language.

Intentional or unintentional misspelling of the word "owned". It is used primarily as an exclaimation by those that bear witness to someone getting put down or abused to a degree that the victim is humiliated.

This word originated from when players beat the oozing puss out of other players so badly and tried to type "owned" too fast because their opponent's defeat was so effortless and crushing that their pinky's would hit the "p" key instead of the "o" key. The further instantiation of this gamer term may have to do with the nature of a gamer's attitude saying "my misspelling of this word befits your nooby loss."
"p'wned!"
"I p'wned your @ss!"
"I p'wned your nooby @ss!"

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
