1. Bet<\/h3>

An enthusiastic ‘yes’, ‘okay’, or ‘consider it done’.<\/p>

For example: <\/strong>Someone says, “Let’s just quickly align on strategy before lunch.” You reply, “Bet.” Two hours later, the group is still debating whether to say ‘marginalised’ or ‘underserved’.<\/p>

2. Mid<\/h3>

Mediocre; not terrible, but definitely not impressive.<\/p>

\"What<\/a><\/div>

For example: <\/strong>You proudly present a new community engagement strategy in a team meeting. After a long pause, someone says, “It’s solid…but the innovation factor is a bit mid.” You add ‘transformative’ to the title slide.<\/p>

3. Mog<\/h3>

To outshine or dominate someone, often effortlessly.<\/p>

For example: <\/strong>At a donor convening, your team proudly presents a pilot that reached 800 households across three villages. The next speaker casually mentions that their chatbot serves 2 million farmers across six states. You’ve just been mogged.<\/p>

4. Crash out<\/h3>

To lose patience and react dramatically.<\/p>

For example: <\/strong>You submit a proposal after three weeks of work. The donor replies, “Just a few minor edits.” The attached document has 87 comments. Your programme manager closes the laptop and says, “I’m about to crash out.”<\/p>

5. Aura farming<\/h3>

Doing things mainly to build reputation, credibility, or perceived influence.<\/p>

For example: <\/strong>At the end of a panel, an audience member chimes in, “This is less a question and more a comment based on my experience of working across 14 countries…” The moderator checks the time. The audience checks out. Aura successfully farmed.<\/p>

6. Opp<\/h3>

Short for ‘opposition’ or ‘enemy’; someone working against you.<\/p>

For example: <\/strong>Your team finally finishes a proposal minutes before the deadline. The grants portal crashes. In that moment, the website is your biggest opp.<\/p>

7. TFW<\/h3>

Short for ‘that feeling when’. Used to describe a very specific, very relatable moment.<\/p>

For example:<\/strong> TFW the internet works perfectly during your online workshop with field teams or when the programme staff send photos with captions and consent forms.<\/p>

8. No cap<\/h3>

Used to emphasise that something is genuinely true, even if it sounds unbelievable.<\/p>

For example:<\/strong> I dreamt that my proposal got approved on the first submission—no edits, no re-submissions. Just an e-mail that says, “We’re happy to fund this. No cap.”
