🔥 Fire
Stable🌍Universal#emoji#texting#compliment#evergreen
Definition
Means something is hot, great, amazing, or impressive. One of the older slang emojis that's remained relevant. 'That's fire' = 'that's really good.' Used for music, outfits, food, accomplishments. Straightforward and still going strong.
Translation for Parents
This one's easy: it means something is really good. Great outfit? 🔥. Good song? 🔥. Your cooking? Probably not 🔥, according to your kids, but you can dream.
Examples
Brainrot:
“this playlist is 🔥”
English:
“This playlist is really good”
Cringe Score
3.0/10 cringe
Mildly embarrassing
Fairly safe but slightly aging. It's the emoji equivalent of a thumbs up from a cool uncle. Not embarrassing, but your kids know you're trying.
