Ss

SS is shorthand for The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, a game in the Zelda series that fans often use in online discussions and gaming communities. Nintendo released SS on November 18, 2011 in Europe and November 20 in North America, for the Nintendo Wii, and later remastered for the Nintendo Switch in 2021. The abbreviation soon grew in usage, helping players quickly reference the game, especially when comparing it to other Zelda games or diving into specific aspects of its gameplay.

You'll commonly see SS used on platforms like Reddit, Twitter, and Discord, where space is limited, such as when discussing SS's motion controls, its unique story, or its use of the flying bird companion, Loftwing. Players also use SS when sharing experiences about the game's exploration and puzzle mechanics or discussing its place in the timeline of the Zelda series. SS is one of many game abbreviations in the community, along with BOTW, TP, and OOT.

SS is a key defensive position in baseball and softball, played between second base (2B) and third base (3B). The SS position is one of the most important on the field, handling grounders, turning double plays, and covering much territory. Since many hitters are right-handed and tend to hit toward the left side of the infield, the shortstop sees plenty of action and needs quick reflexes, a strong arm, and good decision-making skills.

You'll frequently see SS used in lineups, scorecards, and fantasy baseball, where managers look for shortstops who can contribute defensively and offensively. While the position is traditionally defense-first, many modern shortstops are also power hitters or speed threats. If someone says, "I need a solid SS for my fantasy team," they're seeking a well-rounded player who can rack up hits, steals, runs, and RBIs.

Ss is an abbreviation for "screenshot," which is an image capture of a computer, tablet, or phone screen. It is typically used online when referencing a screenshot to help solve a computer or phone issue.

If you've ever heard the phrase, "a picture is worth a thousand words" then you understand how helpful a screenshot can be. Instead of having to describe what a computer is doing, the user can take a screenshot, which can be used to understand and fix the problem.

Ss is a common abbreviation used in MOBA games such as League of Legends (LoL) and Defense of the Ancients (DotA). It is typically used when an enemy champion has gone missing (also referred to as MIA) from his lane. The abbreviation can be typed faster than "miss" or "missing" because you don't have to remove your right hand from the mouse.
