Etymology
The exact origin of this suffix is unknown. Currently, it is used to bypass profanity filters, by the Crips street gang in the United States to avoid writing "ck" (as "ck" could stand for "Crip Killer"), emphasize the "k" sound, and sexualize certain words (e.g. en thicc, the most popular word with this modification, or en succ).
Pronunciation
en /k/
Suffix
en Internet slang humorous Used to replace "ck" and some similar endings at the end of a word or syllable. Does not alter the meaning (apart from making words jocular), nor the pronunciation.
