chuffed
British for thrilled
Chuffed is British slang for pleased or delighted: I was dead chuffed when they offered me the job.
The word carries a warm, informal tone—you're chuffed about good news, a compliment, or an unexpected success.
Confusingly, chuffed has also meant displeased in some dialects, though the positive sense now dominates.
