What does "sweat" mean in online gaming slang?
This term became popular in competitive games like "Fortnite" and "Call of Duty." Today, it is used to describe a player who tries very hard to win, often using the best weapons and strategies; sometimes so seriously that others find it annoying. Gamers call someone a "sweat" when they are being too intense in a casual match. The word simply comes from sweating from effort, now used as a playful insult for someone who doesn't relax while playing.
to be worried or anxious about something
to cook food slowly over low heat without browning, typically covered, to release moisture and soften the ingredients
