What Does This Mean?
Spanish Gen Z slang praise: "devorar" (to devour) is used for someone who did something extremely well, especially a striking look or performance, as in "devoró" (she or he devoured it). It mirrors the English slang "ate" ("ate and left no crumbs") and is close to "slay". It is a figurative use of the verb, not the literal sense of eating.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"«Con ese look en la gala, ¡devoró!», comentó Marta."
LORE & ORIGIN
A Spanish-language Gen Z glossary from KCH Comunicación (dated 22 Aug 2026) explains "devorar", from English "ate", as praise for a striking look, often as "ha devorado sin dejar ni las migas". Dictionaries list only the literal and figurative-avid sense of "devorar"; the slang praise sense is not yet documented in dictionaries and no dated first use was found.
