Description

This term refers to a subtle, sneering expression of contempt or a clever, indirect insult. Unlike a direct confrontation, throwing shade involves using nuance, body language, or double entendres to criticize someone. It is a staple of internet discourse, particularly in celebrity gossip and social media interactions.

Example

>She didn't say his name, but she was definitely throwing shade in that interview.

>I love how she can throw shade with just a single look.
