Mahlatse
Mahlatse is a unisex name mostly used in South Africa . It is mostly used by people from Bapedi tribe in Limpopo and those that are mixed. It means "Lucky" which then switches to a male sex name. Every Mahlatse that you meet is always quiet, loving, giving and a men/women lover. They have big hearts but it's hard to convince them that you're telling the truth if you lied one's or twice to them. They can show you s*** sometimes but most of them having a cl8se relationship with Jesus Christ 🙏.

Adaptive White Gaussian Noise
This is a racial slur, because it associates individual personalities and traits with a skin color.
It is both positive and negative:
(1) Adaptive: flexible, able to switch to a different strategy in a new environment.
(2) Gaussian: (named after Carl Friedrich Gauss, a mathematician) vaguely implies above-average mathematical abilities or intelligence.
(3) Noise: (pejorative) nuisance, something to be ignored. A neutral synonym would be "dissenting opinion". However, in some social settings, being a dissenting voice imparts a sense of snobbishness.
Not to be confused with Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN), which is a mathematical concept deeply rooted in digital signal processing and probability theory. The correct interpretation of the four words of AWGN are:
(1) Additive (not to be misspelled addictive) means addition (the sum of two numbers).
(2) White means (i) consisting of all frequencies (ii) uncorrelated. This meaning stems from the physical phenomemon that a white light is formed from a mixture of monochromatic lights of various frequencies.
(3) Gaussian refers to the Gaussian Distribution, also known as a Normal Distribution, a concept in probability.

As used in bumper stickers, tshirt. Misuse of "Adaptive White Gaussian Noise" may result in disciplinary actions from school.

It mangs!
"It mangs!" is an expression used in very specific circumstances to alert others that you are in extreme pain. The only time it can be used is when a cold fun-sized Cadbury's Caramel bar is thrown and hits you on the neck.

Gnocch-out
"Hey Dad, can you drive me to school?"
"Sorry Son, I'm suffering from an acute Gnocch-out. Ask your mom."
"She's dead, dad."
"Oh."
