sweatin

Dripping with effort

Sweatin is an informal spelling of sweating, representing casual pronunciation that drops the final g.

It appears in speech-like writing: Why you sweatin me? meaning why are you pressuring or bothering me.

The form is common in hip-hop lyrics and African American Vernacular English, often implying nervous anxiety or unwanted attention: Don't be sweatin the small stuff.
