vibe

Feeling you sense

Vibe is the atmosphere or feeling that a person, place, or situation gives off.

You pick up on vibes—good vibes at a party, bad vibes from a stranger.

Someone's vibe is their general energy or aura: I like her vibe.

As a verb, to vibe is to get along well or be in harmony: We just vibed immediately.

To vibe with something is to enjoy or connect with it: I'm really vibing with this song.
