What does the word "sheesh" mean on TikTok?

So, you may have noticed that #sheesh is trending on your Discover page. Additionally, users have been posting videos saying the viral word in a high-pitched voice. Why?

According to Merriam-Webster, the word "sheesh" is "used to express disappointment, annoyance, or surprise."

Though the word is found in the dictionary, it reportedly became popular on TikTok when user @meetjulio created the audio in a high-pitched voice and posted it alongside a clip of a huge frog. And that's...kind of it! There's no real deeper meaning.

It's just a simple, funny sound that has captivated TikTokers; millions of people have created videos using the "sheesh" audio at this point. Many of the videos show someone doing something mildly impressive, and the audio plays in the background. It kind of works to hype up the person in the video or say they've done something cool.

Using the word "sheesh" in your new video is not the only trending lingo that TikTok users are using.

What does the word "bussin'" mean?

It's safe to say that every decade has had its fair share of lingo or "cool" phrases. We were hit with "far out" in the 1960s, "take a chill pill" in the 1970s, "tubular" in the 1980s, "bling" in the 1990s, and "you go girl" in the early 2000s.

Now, TikTok has seemingly created its own viral word that many young kids and teens have added to their repertoire: "bussin.'"

"Enjoyed working alongside these amazing students this morning. I even taught them the meaning of 'elbow grease,' and they taught me the meaning of 'bussin'' while we worked. Thanks @QuinnShawn and Ms. Beasley-Brown for organizing this opportunity for our students to give back," one person tweeted.
