F in the chat
Language: English
Part of speech: noun
Pronunciation: ipa: /ˌɛf‿ɪn ðə ˈt͡ʃæt/
Forms: form: Fs in the chat
Etymology: Originally a call for streamers on the online platform Twitch to type “F” in chat windows as a way to express sympathy when an unfortunate event occurs.

The prompt became a meme, where people would be asked to “press F to pay respects” in non-gaming contexts to suggest that credit, recognition, or sympathy should be given.
Senses: examples: text: One hour ago, however, Gaules [pseudonym; Alexandre Borba Chiqueta] put out a mysterious tweet. "If you have faith, leave your F in the chat," he wrote. The word F, in gaming culture, means to pay your respects when someone dies.
