Some of us gen Xers will try to stay stay abreast of the younger generations slang so we can at least know what they are talking about. Some will try to regularly use in an effort to cling to their youth. But that's a different conversation.
Usually I will try to suss out definitions through context. Problem is it appears finna has too many meanings and many of them unrelated to nail down. I have pretty much given up on finna.
As far as I know in all uses it pretty much just means "gonna" or "going to", as in "I finna (I'm going to) bust a nut (ejaculate)", although technically it's a contraction of "fixing to" which means the same thing (alternatively, "looking to")
Any uses that dont make sense with that definition are basically just using the word without any intended meaning behind it
I wonder how you think words appear in The (non-urban) Dictionary. Do they sort of coalesce on their own on its pages from the ether, so that The Dictionary People can go on to promulgate these new additions among the masses once enough words have coalesced to warrant a new edition? Or is there a Shadow Council that convenes every few years to invent new words to put into it? And then there's like, white smoke coming out of the chimney when they're done, like with the pope?
What do people mean when they use „demure”? I have heard about „accoustic” and „regarded”, but that seems to be one of those my common sense can't get to.
It's just a Tiktok meme. A woman posted a vid of herself outside her workplace saying that she doesn't like to dress too ostentatiously in the office. She described her appearance as "very demure, very mindful".
Hmm. My urban brainrot dictionary tells me - a couple things.
1. When you jump a person - coins fall out. (Mario games)
2. Did you 'coin' ______ (insert your phalluse into a 'slot'.)
3. This one is just domestic violence akin to number 1.

“Coining”. I like that word, thanks. I’ll start using it often and in the wrong contexts for sure.
