What does "leng" mean in British slang?
The structure is a simple adjective of uncertain origin. It is used in British Multicultural London English (MLE) and UK slang to mean extremely attractive, good looking, or desirable, often considered stronger than "peng." People typically say "She's leng" or "That fit is leng." The term originated in early 2000s London street and grime music culture, later spreading through UK youth slang and social media, and remains common, especially in London.
Examples
That girl is leng, everyone's staring at her.
