Default Tibbspeak.

There are some things I hear on tibb that puzzle me. I don't know what they really mean.

What is Tea?
What does Nnn mean?
Why does wig mean yes?
And what is a Snowflake?

Apologies if you think I'm a bit thick

Any others that people don't know but didn't like to ask...go ahead.

Tea - that's the truth. Sipping the truth tea.. etc
Nnn - a reaction to something that's funny
Wig - a good reaction. Yaaas/ slay/wig etc. "That performance was so good my wig fell off!"
Snowflake is used by anyone when they're losing an argument. Usually as a blanket term for mocking someone's outrage at a sensitive topic.

Oh thank god I’m not the only one here who doesn’t know the TIBB lingo I think I’ve worked out some of them but I don’t want to use them in the wrong context.

Qua, Brat, Milja, Sle also have their own text slang on here

Josy finds that annoying but i myself can understand that, it's an accent


ah = i or ah'm is I'm


it's english but in a really heavy accent

We use snowflake in a different context (on another forum), as in if somebody on a tv show is your 'snowflake' it just means your ultimate favourite

you should try listening to some of our dutch accents

Limburgs and Fryslan are hard to understand


my brabants accent is also a bit difficult to understand, we speak with ''soft g'' that's what they say about our accent

and that was a free dutch language lesson from me

If so, they're lost for words, basically. Depends on context but usually due to shock/disgust.

Yes that’s what I meant thanks Shaun. I see this one quite often but I had no clue what it meant.

Oop is used to express shock eg “Oop it’s snowing” or something like that. “And I oop” is the same thing, just with “and I” in front of it

I actually like nnnnnn & ffffffff & dddddddd & *keyboard smash*

I use them all, whichever feels right in the situation, and idk what makes each one feel right I just know I use each one in some kind of different situations lol (like I think I uuusually lean towards nnnnn when it's more on the ****ed up side of funny )

I think I like it because it feels kinda real-life esque as well. Like I'll make an fff sound or some other random sound when something's funny but not enough to all-out laugh about.
