Sitch

/sɪtʃ/ noun

Definition

Slang for 'situation'; a circumstance or state of affairs.

Etymology

American slang abbreviation of 'situation,' shortened from the original word. Developed in late 20th century colloquial English, popularized in teen and casual speech.

Kelly Says

Sitch is pure slang shortening—English speakers are lazy in a clever way, chopping 'situation' down to fit faster speech! It's the same impulse that created 'fab' from 'fabulous' and 'bro' from 'brother.'
