What does "opp" mean in slang?
The structure is a clipped shortening of "opponent" or "opposition," reducing the word to just its first three letters for faster, grittier communication. It is used to describe an enemy, rival, or someone from an opposing group, especially in gang culture, street slang, or competitive online gaming. People typically say "opp" when referring to someone they are in active conflict with, such as "Watch out, opps in the area" or "He's an opp, don't trust him."
Examples
Watch your back around here; he 's an opp.
