Kutt.

Guy / Dude.

意思

Informal word for a young man.

🌍

文化背景

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!
