Peng (n)


Peng (n)
Means: A person that is good looking.
Usage: "There's some Peng over there"; "He/she is proper peng."

Unsurping the long-standing champion 'fit' in the overly sexualised playground lexicon, 'peng' has become the go-to word for any savvy pupil looking to publicly display their attraction to a member of their class, school or wider social circle. But don't be fooled into thinking it's a blast of intellectual slang utilising the Chinese symbol meaning 'great accomplishment'. It's actually said to be an abbreviation of the terminally cute aquatic animal, the penguin.
