Rekt is a slang term that originated in online gaming communities and referred to getting severely beaten, defeated, or humiliated in a game.
It is often used as a verb, as in “I got rekt in that match.” The term has since expanded into broader internet slang, used to describe any situation where someone has suffered a major loss or failure. The word “rekt” is a combination of the words “wrecked” and “rectified.”
The term is often used humorously or playfully, but can also be used thoughtfully to describe a serious loss.
