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

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

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

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

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.
