Significado
Informal word for a young man.
Contexto cultural
Among Estonian teens, 'kutt' is often paired with English loanwords, e.g., 'chill kutt'. On Estonian TikTok and Instagram, 'kutt' is the standard term in captions for male-centric content. In Tallinn, 'kutt' is ubiquitous. In South Estonia (Tartu), you might hear 'tüüp' slightly more often, though 'kutt' is understood everywhere. Calling someone 'mu kutt' early in a relationship signals that it's becoming serious but remains casual.
Use it for your boyfriend
If you want to sound like a local Gen Z, always use 'mu kutt' instead of 'mu poiss-sõber'.
Watch the 't's
The difference between 'kuti' and 'kutti' is the length of the 't'. Practice holding the 't' longer for the partitive!
