Clapped
Rising🔥Bleeding EdgeDefinition
Ugly, unattractive, or beaten badly. British slang that crossed over to American teen usage. 'He got clapped' can mean he got beaten badly in a game or roasted hard.
Translation for Parents
It means unattractive or beaten badly. 'That car is clapped' = that car looks terrible. 'He got clapped in the game' = he lost badly. It's British slang that your American kid picked up from UK gaming streamers. Globalization is wild.
Examples
“That fit is clapped bro take it off”
“That outfit looks terrible, please change”
“We got clapped 10-0 in the game”
“We lost 10-0 in the game, a complete defeat”
Cringe Score
Your kid will cringe
Using British slang as an American parent is a bold choice. You'll either sound cosmopolitan or confused. There is no middle ground.
