EN: very gay; stereotypically gay
The final evolution of "accla." "Acclang twoh" (from "baklang totoo" or "true gay") is the label for something that is unapologetically, undeniably, and fabulously gay. It’s the glitter on the eyelids, the death drop on the dance floor, the high note in a Mariah Carey song. It’s not just gay, it’s *gay* gay. The highest level of gayness you can achieve.
From "bekimon" or gayspeak, a transformation of "baklang totoo" (true gay). "Bakla" becomes "accla," and "totoo" becomes "twoh."
ROOT MEANING: gay man, gay person
A very specific slang term used within the LGBTQ+ community. It's an intensifier.
