Engish: Brit. English: suss
Tutoring English, vocabulary is always interesting. The tutor mentions suss.
Me and the boys thought we had it sussed
-Rod Stewart, “I Was Only Joking”
I heard that lyric as a kid, and assumed sussed must mean “figured out,” but didn’t know for sure. Today, I decided to check. Indeed, I’d correctly guessed the meaning of sussed. It’s informal British.
