뜻
Informal verb meaning to really like or love something/someone.
문화적 배경
In France, 'kiffer' is the king of informal verbs. It's used by everyone from suburban youth to 'Bobos' (bourgeois-bohemians) in Paris. It's a symbol of how 'Argot' has become the standard informal language. While 'kiffer' is understood in Quebec due to French media, it is much less common. Quebecers are more likely to use 'triper' or 'aimer' with a strong accent. In Algeria, Morocco, and Tunisia, the root 'kif' is still used in its original sense of 'pleasure' or 'mood'. The French 'kiffer' is sometimes seen as a 'return' of the word in a new form. In cities like Abidjan or Dakar, 'kiffer' is very popular among youth, often mixed with local languages like Wolof or Nouchi slang.
The 'Grave' Rule
If you want to sound 100% native, always add 'grave' after 'kiffer'. 'Je kiffe grave !' is the gold standard of casual French.
Watch the 'Vous'
If you are using 'vous' with someone, you probably shouldn't be using 'kiffer'. They belong to different worlds.
