N
And
N is a common abbreviation many people use online and in text messages to be short for "and." People may also abbreviate it as 'n' (with quotes).
You will most likely see it when people are grouping things together, like "pete n steve" or "fruits n veggies." It has been around for a long time, which means older adults and tweens are usually familiar with it.
For some reason, a lot of stores and restaurants utilize the "n" abbreviation. Popular examples include the "In-N-Out Burger" fast-food chain and "Pump N Munch" gas stations.

In
In text messages and online chat, n is often short for "in." If someone asks whether you're "n" or tells you they're "n" trouble, they're using n in place of "in."
Notably, n can also stand for "and" in texts and online chat. Context, however, should tell you whether the person you're talking to is using n to mean "and" or "in."

I'm also n

If you message someone a question, and they respond with "n," they are saying, "no." You will likely see this in messages online and texts responding negatively to a question or as an option on questionnaires and forms.
For example, if you text your friend asking if she wants to date Kevin, she may respond with "n" if she is uninterested. Additionally, if you are filling out a health form in the doctor's office, a question about whether or not you have allergies may be followed with "(Y/N)," where "Y" stands for "Yes."
