What does "ight" mean on Snapchat?

Alright. “Ight” is a shortened way of saying “alright” in a text message and across all social media platforms. “Ight” can mean “yes,” “I guess so,” “is that okay with you,” or “fine.” “Ight” can be used as an answer to a question, a way to check in with someone, or a technique to get someone’s attention. "I’m thinking Thai tonight. ????”“Ight. That sounds good!" "I’m planning on painting the walls blue. You cool with that?” “Ight. ???????? I don’t have a favorite color, so I don't really care." "I’m going to throw a party tonight, ight?” “Okay. But only because it’s a Saturday! ????" "How’s your day been?” “Ight. ???????? I don’t have any complaints."

How to Use "ight"

Give a sign of approval. If someone asks you a question, say “ight” to say you’re on board with their suggestion. It’s a casual way to confirm you’re down.

I’m so ready to beat your high score. ????" Them: "I love you, sis, but you gotta wash your dishes, like…now! ????️ ????" You: "Ight. I’ll come right down and take care of them."
