- Description
-
"Legit" means convincingly genuine or authentic, especially when a viewer initially suspects something may be fake. It is an informal clipping of "legitimate" that is common in online comments, texting, and spoken casual English. The word often expresses a reassessment: something looked believable enough to prompt checking or trust. Its tone is approving but practical, suggesting that the thing passes a credibility test rather than merely being enjoyable.
- Example
-
— “That cardboard restaurant had a five-star sign, bro.” — “It’s legit; the chef is a raccoon with a hairnet.”
A legit treasure map turned out to be the pizza menu, complete with a mysterious grease-stained X.
