hiney

Where you sit

Hiney is a childish or playful word for the buttocks, used especially around or by children as a mild alternative to more direct terms: Get your hiney over here.

Also spelled heinie.

The word carries no real vulgarity—it's the kind of thing a parent says when a stronger word feels inappropriate.
