Bet
의미: Okay; I agree; it's a deal.
'Bet' is a concise way to confirm agreement or acceptance. Where you might say 'okay,' 'sounds good,' or 'deal,' Gen Z says 'bet.' It can express agreement with a plan ('Want to meet at 7?' 'Bet'), confirm understanding, or express approval. Sometimes used sarcastically when you don't actually agree. Its brevity is part of its appeal.
