WHAT “SLAY” ACTUALLY MEANS
To do something extremely well or look amazing, as in “you slayed that presentation” or “that outfit slays”. It is often said simply as “slay!” to cheer someone on.
ZACK’S TRANSLATION
High praise for doing something brilliantly. Mostly used about outfits. Rarely used about tax returns, which is unfair.
