EN: No cap; for real; seriously
Straight from Gen Z's dictionary, this is the 2020s version of 'pramis,' 'swear,' or 'seryoso.' You drop this when you want to make sure your friends know you're not joking about the latest chismis or that the 2-pc chicken you ordered is, in fact, life-changing. 'This unli-rice is the best, nocap.'
From African-American Vernacular English (AAVE) slang 'no cap'.
Primarily used by younger generations and online. It's a direct import from global internet culture used to add emphasis and assert truthfulness.
