bruh

Casual male greeting

Bruh is a casual exclamation expressing disbelief, exasperation, or disappointment—often at something absurd or frustrating: Bruh, you forgot your wallet again?

It evolved from "bro" and functions similarly to "dude" or "man" as a reaction.

Originally associated with Black American speech, bruh spread through internet culture and is now widely used, especially among younger speakers.
