G
Significado: Short for gangster. A term of respect for someone who's tough, loyal, and real. Also used as a casual term of address.
Calling someone a G is a sign of respect — it means they're solid, dependable, and authentic. While it comes from 'gangster,' its modern usage has little to do with crime. A G is someone who handles difficult situations with composure, stays loyal to their people, and keeps it real. It's one of the highest casual compliments.
