Peng...

[HenniPenni]

What ever does it mean? Keeps coming up in conversation between DD and her friends?

[HuwEdwards]

have no idea

[jollymum]

DS16 says it means "smell".
HTH

[HenniPenni]

Ah jollymum, that fits right in because her and her friends are usually refering to boys when I hear it!(they're only 11 )

[southeastastra]

peng! weird word, it could be shortened from 'pen and ink'

[JackieNo]

or 'pong'?

[bamboo]

JackieNo, did you see you got a mention in The Guardian G2 today.

[HenniPenni]

Have just weedled it out of her, apparently it means "fit", why can't they just say cute or good looking!

[southeastastra]

bump for jackieno, mrs badger and orangegiraffe for being mentioned in the g2 !!

[JackieNo]

Oooh - fame at last. Thanks for pointing that out, southeastastra.

[foxtrot]

ooh ooh i'm famous too !

[Georgie11]

peng does not meen smelly my 11 year old dd uses the word all the time and has told me it meengood looking the same as buff.

[dinosaurrawwr]

It means fit

[flow4]

It means 'really good', in all sorts of contexts. I've not heard it used to mean 'good looking', but I guess it could. Its opposite is 'deng', meaning really bad or disgusting!

[TeenageWildlife]

And similar to leng, which means good.

[snickers251]

I agree with others peng is 'fit'

D15yrS had been using this word for some time now

[dexter73]

peng is fit and butters is ugly (apparently).

[pettyprudence]

peng is fit/nice - a boy or dinner can be "well peng". The opposite is leng.

I have a teenage niece and am forever trying to decipher her fb statuses

[flow4]

Round here, 'peng a leng' means something like 'extra peng'/'extra good' :) Here's peng-a-leng in the Urban Dictionary!. SO do other phrases like 'well peng', 'pengalicious' and 'peng-ass'!

'Deng' is definitely horrible or ugly! And here's deng in the Urban Dictionary

[doinmummy]

Peng = Fit

Sick = good
