So...

What's the meaning of "Word" in this context.

leon · 03-18-2009, 06:14 PM

you didn't give any context lol.. but it basically means.. yes, I agree, exactly...

MemphisRheins · 03-18-2009, 06:14 PM

^ Somewhere along the lines of: I agree, or yes that is correct

madman · 03-18-2009, 06:19 PM

I'm still not sure whether you were being humourously ironic, or really didn't know. Either way,

The irony continues I'd say..........tickled me anyhow.

alcook · 03-21-2009, 03:52 AM

SoYank... I agree completely. Oops...

'word dude'

And some people wonder why they're unemployable**...

Whatever happened to:

OK
looks good
all right
excellent
sure
agreed
fair enough
concur
good enough

Not forgetting all the other interesting adjectives and adverbs...

** I know I'm missing the point and being a miserable old git, but when this transfers (with text talk) to everyday language (and CV's) then it does become an issue for those wondering why they didn't get through the door, especially when strong or decent written and verbal skills are a necessity.

LOL at this thread!
In the states we use

As in. . . "I concur."
To show agreement. . .
