If you’ve ever watched an episode ofKeeping Up with the KardashiansorThe Kardashiansand found yourself wondering why everyone shouts phrases like “Bible!” at one another, then you’re probably in need of a little Kardashian-Jenner vocab lesson.
Fortunately, the sisters regularly take to their websites and apps to share specially curated lists of their favorite family slang. Without further ado, here’s a deep dive into the language of America’s favorite reality television family.
Facts
For the KarJenners, the word “facts,” unsurprisingly, means expressing “the truth, the real deal, whatreallyhappened,” Kim once explained.
Bloop
We’re pretty sureNeNe Leakesstarted this one, but in case you were wondering, here’s how Kim defines it: “Essentially meaningless, a ‘bloop’ is a space filler that can be used at any time, for any reason.”
Turbo thot
For the uninitiated, “thot” is an acronym for “that ho over there” and according to Kim, a turbo thot “is an individual who is particularly fast, in the colloquial and sexual sense of the word.”
Still confused? Here’s how Kim would use it in a sentence:“That girl is such a turbo thot; she’s literally hooked up with every guy I know.”
Well then … the more you know.
Wave, wavy
Remember when Kim’s former husbandKanye Westalmost named his albumWavesand ignited one of themost epic Twitter feuds of 2016?
West may have eventually settled onThe Life of Pabloinstead, but according to the KarJenners that doesn’t mean they can’t incorporate the word into their daily vocab.
According to Kim, a wave is “the current trend, what’s cool right now; what all the cool kids are super into at the moment,” so there you have it.
Sus
Vibes
Vibes consist of “the general feelings that someone or something gives you,” explains Kim. “A vibe is not concrete, but rather a mood you feel from other people and your surroundings.”
Deep, Kim.
Snatched
Things you might refer to as snatched: your waist, your eyebrows, your general aesthetic — basically this is a term referring to good looks and overall “fierceness,” says Kim. Take notes, ladies.
Turnt
This one is a point of contention. While Kim listed “turnt” amongst her favorites (“not to be confused with ‘lit,’ ‘turnt’ is used to describe the atmosphere of a party, event or group of individuals,” she explains), sisterKhloé Kardashianisn’t such a fan: “never liked this one,” she once wrote on her own app.
Gives me life
This one’s pretty obvious — “to make one excited; to give one a reason to live,” Khloé explains.
What gives Khloé life, you might ask? Her “long nails,“obviously— this is a Kardashian we’re talking about, after all.
Bible
Originating from the fact that we swear on the Bible in court, crying out the word “Bible!” has become a KarJenner classic when it comes to expressing something youreallymean.
A memorable appearance? On an episode ofKUWTK, whenKendall Jennerput brotherRob Kardashianon blastfor regifting the iPad she bought him toBlac Chyna.
“Bible— I want my iPad, my pen and my keyboard back,” she warned. She ain’t messing around, Rob.
Slore
A combination of the words “slut” and “whore.”
Momager
When your mom is also your manager,à laKris Jenner.
Damn, Gina
Handbag Ho
“A handbag ho is a girl who hooks up with a guy so they will buy them an expensive handbag,” explains Khloé. “Don’t f—ing be thirsty, honey! Real love and hard work — over everything.”
Jane and Suzanne
If you’re an avid watcher of Khloé andKourtney’s Snapchat sagas at the gym, you’re probably used to watching the two of them mysteriously refer to each other as Jane and Suzanne. As for where that inspiration comes from? Why, ’80s workout gurusJane FondaandSuzanne Somers, of course.
“I’m not sure how we decided who was whom but Kourtney’s Jane Fonda and I’m Suzanne Somers,” says Khloé. “We came up with this when we started working out together because we felt like fitness gurus in our own right.”
Abigail and Amelia
Another Khloé/Kourtney inside joke: Abigail and Amelia are the two geese inThe Aristocats.
Tawanda and Yolanda
Whenever Khloé was in her “Yolo” phase, she and her friends would call each other Tawanda and Yolanda. We won’t ask, and neither should you.
Okurrr
We’re not quite sure how to explain this one, to be honest, but Khloé always says it on Snapchat. We’re thinking it’s a combination of the words “okay” and “sure,” but stay tuned for further research.
Study up when watchingThe Kardashianson Hulu.
