Maunt is internet slang that originated from merging the words “mom” and “aunt.” It refers to a person, typically a middle-aged woman, who exhibits behavior or characteristics that blend the stereotypical traits of a mom and an aunt. This term is often used playfully or affectionately to describe someone who is caring, nurturing, or overprotective, but may also be a bit nosy or sassy.
Examples:
1. My best friend’s mom is the ultimate maunt – she always has fresh cookies waiting for us when we come over and gives the best advice!
2. Just arrived at a family gathering and my maunt immediately started interrogating me about my love life. Can’t escape her sharp questions!
