Stable🌍Universal#reaction#failure#simple
Definition
A loss. Used to describe a failure, embarrassment, or bad outcome. 'L take' = bad opinion. Taking an L = experiencing a loss or failure.
Translation for Parents
L means loss or failure. If your kid says 'that's an L,' something went wrong. If they say YOU'RE an L... that's tough. But at least you know what it means now.
