"-ussy" meaning in English

See -ussy in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Suffix

IPA: /-ˈʊsi/, /-ˈʌsi/ Audio: LL-Q1860 (eng)-Flame, not lame--ussy.wav
Etymology: Reanalyzed from blends formed with pussy. The first -⁠ussy term is often considered to be bussy (boy + pussy), with evidence for the term as early as 2004. However, the -⁠ussy suffix arguably originates in March–April 2017, when nussy (nose + pussy), thrussy (throat + pussy), and thussy (they + pussy) were coined in quick succession and popularized on Tumblr. This was soon followed by the "one thicc bih" meme around May–June 2017, which led to a huge growth of novel -⁠ussy terms. -⁠ussy became more prominent in 2022, resulting in the suffix being chosen as the American Dialect Society's 2022 Word of the Year.

However, the -⁠ussy suffix arguably originates in March–April 2017, when nussy (nose + pussy), thrussy (throat + pussy), and thussy (they + pussy) were coined in quick succession and popularized on Tumblr. This was soon followed by the \"one thicc bih\" meme around May–June 2017, which led to a huge growth of novel -⁠ussy terms. -⁠ussy became more prominent in 2022, resulting in the suffix being chosen as the American Dialect Society's 2022 Word of the Year.",
