What Does This Mean?

[ SLANG ][ MULTILINGUAL NATIVE ]

Brazilian Portuguese gaming verb meaning to die repeatedly and so hand the enemy team kills, gold and experience, as in "parou de feedar". It is the Portuguese-conjugated form of the English "to feed" and is also used as an insult for a player who dies too often.

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

"Para de feedar, você já morreu cinco vezes."

LORE & ORIGIN

The verb adapts the English gaming sense of "feed", which comes from the image of feeding the enemy through one's deaths in MOBAs such as League of Legends, and adds the Portuguese infinitive ending -ar. The English form is already covered by the entry for feeding; this entry records the Portuguese verb, conjugated as feedou, feedando or feedado (some Brazilian esports outlets also use feedado for the opposite sense, a strong player with many kills). No formal Portuguese dictionary entry was found, so its meaning rests on gamer usage and on glossaries of the English loan.
