Plat is an internet slang term that means playing or pretending. It is often used to describe when someone is not being genuine or is pretending to be someone they are not. Here are two practical examples of how this term can be used:
Example 1:
Person A: Hey, did you see that Instagram influencer’s post about their lavish lifestyle?
Person B: Yeah, they’re just platting. They rented that house for the photoshoot, they don’t actually live there.
Example 2:
Person A: I heard Mark is always talking about his accomplishments, but I’ve never seen any evidence.
Person B: He’s probably just platting. He likes to make himself seem more impressive than he actually is.
Person A: I can’t believe she claims to be a professional gamer, yet she constantly loses every match she plays.
Person B: She is definitely plating; she’s just pretending to be good at gaming.
Person A: I saw Tom’s Facebook post about his exotic vacation, but I know he can’t afford such luxurious trips.
Person B: Don’t take it seriously; he’s just platting to get attention.
