Cutty
의미: A hidden, secluded, or shady spot; also used to describe something sketchy or secretive.
In Bay Area slang, a cutty spot is a hidden or out-of-the-way place — it could be a quiet hangout spot, a secret shortcut, or somewhere sketchy. 'In the cut' means hiding or staying low-key. The word carries a sense of being off the beaten path, either positively (a chill hidden spot) or negatively (somewhere shady).
