lowkey
A little, kind of, or secretly. Softens a statement.
I lowkey want to stay home tonight.
For parents and educators
Harmless filler. Nothing to do. Lowkey can soften big feelings, so a lowkey sad is still worth a gentle question.
Where it came from
Older slang for quiet or understated that became an everyday filler word.
Also heard as
