WTW

In social media, chat, and text messages, WTW most often stands for "what's the word." This acronym is used similarly to "what's up," to ask how and/or what someone is doing.

For example, your friend Johnny might text you "WTW, how you been?" This is Johnny's (rather feeble) attempt to start a conversation with you, by asking what you've been doing lately.

Other meanings of WTW

In some cases, WTW instead stands for "what the what," which is a clean alternative to WTF, or "what to wear." Hopefully, context will help you determine which version of WTW you're dealing with.
