I recently came across the term wag meaning slang in a few comments and short videos, but I’m not exactly sure what it means. At first, I thought it just referred to a dog wagging its tail, but it seems like people use it differently online.

I just wanted to add my two cents to the conversation about WAG. From what I've gathered, it's short for Wife And Girlfriend, and it's often used to describe the partners of sports stars or celebrities who are seen as being involved in their personal lives. I've seen it used in online forums and social media posts, but it can sometimes come across as a bit derogatory or even sexist.

WAG can have different slang meanings online. It commonly stands for “Wives and Girlfriends,” especially of athletes, often mentioned in sports media. For example, coverage around teams like Manchester United may refer to players’ partners as WAGs.
In casual texting, “wag” can also mean joking or teasing. Context usually makes the meaning clear.
