lates

Definition

A breezy, abbreviated farewell that's short for 'later,' used when you want to exit a conversation with minimal syllables and maximum casual vibes. Popular in the early 2000s and still hanging around in certain circles like that one friend who never really left the party. It's goodbye for people who can't be bothered with the full word.

Example Usage

Alright, I'm heading out now—lates!
