gyat

What it means

A shout of surprise at someone's body, usually a woman's, shortened from "goddamn." It came from streamers and got flattened by younger kids into a general exclamation, often used when they only half know what it means. Younger children frequently say it as pure noise.

In the wild

"Gyat, that dunk was insane."

The parent note

The origin is about ogling, so it is fair to tell a younger kid what they are actually saying before deciding how much you care.
