Lit
Significado: Extremely fun, exciting, or excellent.
Originally meaning intoxicated, 'lit' evolved to describe any exciting experience — a party, a song, a game, or even a meal. It peaked around 2016-2018 but remains widely understood. Some younger Gen Z speakers now consider it slightly dated, which has given it an ironic second life.
Ejemplos

- This party is about to be lit once the DJ starts. 等DJ一开始,这个派对就要燃起来了。Esta fiesta se va a poner increíble en cuanto empiece el DJ.DJが始まったら、このパーティーはヤバくなるよ。DJ가 시작하면 이 파티 완전 불탈 거야.
