beefs
Slang for grievances
Beefs is the plural of beef, covering both its meanings.
In the literal sense, beefs refers to multiple cuts or types of beef meat, though this usage is relatively rare since beef is typically uncountable.
Far more common is the slang sense: complaints or grievances.
I've got a few beefs with how this project was handled.
Someone with multiple beefs has several grudges or disputes, often personal ones.
The verb form means to complain: Stop beefing about the schedule.
