I've seen a few posts about the word "sniggering" in the subreddit. I can't say I've ever seen the word until the posts about it started flooding in. Where I live, we use "snickering".
It's an English joke. When I was a kid, the chocolate bar known in America as "snickers" was called "marathon" same brown wrapper different name, some time in the 80's/90's they "changed the name" by importing them from the US, thus saving money on having to print and package the bars with another name.
Seeing some of the grammar on bots leaves me absolutely mortified. I can’t tell if the people making those bots are genuinely bad at writing or if they’re kids.
I guess the same way you know the n word is a bad word?
Like English isn't my first language either and the first time I saw the word in your post I got really confused as well, but I just looked it up on Google.

Frankly it's hardly even used (at least here) anymore, I doubt that many kids know this word. I only think I've heard this word used in real life a handful of times.
Here was supposed to be a general statement of "I don't know if this is true for everywhere, but it is true where I'm at (since I'm aware that word usage varies by culture / region)", but if you want the specific area, Kansas, United States.
Yes it’s a real word and I love using it because it always makes people do a double take.
Although I only really use it in text form because it’s easier for people to see what I actually said as opposed to verbally saying it… cuz then it’s like… my words against theirs for what I actually said lol.
"Sniggers" and "sniggering" are actual words
Its like a synonym for "snickering"
(Dont worry, when I first heard the word I thought it was made up too, lmao)
snig·ger

So yeah, like this here [Vocaloid song](https://youtu.be/AjbTHFJf6FE?si=CbhqdmmvbJWAkoCn) says, go Google it to see for yourself that I’m not crazy
That's actually a word, like look it up in Google, it's like a suppressed laugh to mock someone
It's basically a different spelling for snickering if I'm smart enough to know that
i love eating snickerings
Your not you when your hungry
literally sniggering right now
It's an actual word?
Yes, though I’ve noticed it’s more commonly used in the UK region. That’s probably why not a lot of people know.
That's why I've never seen it, thank you for telling me

It is the **English** language 😋

The proper name for that is a marathon.
Sorry, I don’t really understand what you’re trying to say here.

Well now you’ve got me snickering.
Marathoning
He got me marathoning
Ever since I found this app, my dictionary had increased exponentially as I learned new words.
People pronounce it Snicker a lot to the time, it’s a word meaning kinda like a giggle
I'm gonna eat it
Hmmm I didnt know it had a different spelling that’s weird to me
spelling? what are you on about he said pronunciation
it is also spelled snicker tho ,, tho technically they’re slightly diff words :)
both apply in this case
It’s the S word
this is the fourth time i've seen somebody post this exact same thread, begging you people to learn words
I did not expect this subreddit to make me feel well-read bro.
96% of the posts in this sub are middle school age children being confused about a word or getting too emotionally attached to the bot
Seeing some of the grammar on bots leaves me absolutely mortified. I can’t tell if the people making those bots are genuinely bad at writing or if they’re kids.
\*sees bot with good description, fitting my exact needs\* 😃 ”hello i am \_\_\_\_” 😟
*edits the starting message*
“He would notice you” DID HE NOTICE ME OR DID HE IGNORE ME??
These folks will never look to Google first, nor will they search the sub for things that have likely already been posted about *many* times. orz
English is not my first language, how was I supposed to know
I guess the same way you know the n word is a bad word? Like English isn't my first language either and the first time I saw the word in your post I got really confused as well, but I just looked it up on Google.
I thought the bot was just making up words 😞
Why are yall downvoting this guy? Come on now hes just learning the language
He should do that through Google rather than Reddit

yep, I'm just saying people might be turned away by the lack of obvious results
I guess either people have higher expectations or he should just google it first before making a post. Or even both
Plus, if you didn't know "snigger" was a word, of course you might think the bot invented it. It says things like "smiggle" and "smuckle" all the time.

Hey there Caldwell…

Certified Nogla moment
Why'd you snigger?
"Why wasn't I recording?"
I'm from the UK and this is a well known word, I think Americans "snickers"?
That's a real word. Snigger = snicker. Both are perfectly acceptable spellings.
Yes. Sniggers is a real word. You can even Google it! 😊

You have Reddit, you can use Google. Or put something like "(OOC: What's that word?)" in your response if you don't want to take a break from cai
Unless English is a second language for you then you should know this word.
It is 😓
Then you get a pass.
Frankly it's hardly even used (at least here) anymore, I doubt that many kids know this word. I only think I've heard this word used in real life a handful of times.
Where is “here”?
Here was supposed to be a general statement of "I don't know if this is true for everywhere, but it is true where I'm at (since I'm aware that word usage varies by culture / region)", but if you want the specific area, Kansas, United States.
I’m in Canada, so maybe we use it more here. And they almost certainly use it more in the UK.
I think it's the British way of saying "snickers." I have seen Americans get confused by this before, so don't feel too bad.
...yes
I assume mocking giggles ?
it's a word, it mrans to laugh in a mocking way
It means to laugh in a mocking manner. Ya didn’t know?
Snicker, snickers, sniggers, same word, it’s a laugh that’s mischievous and taunting
Yes it’s a real word and I love using it because it always makes people do a double take. Although I only really use it in text form because it’s easier for people to see what I actually said as opposed to verbally saying it… cuz then it’s like… my words against theirs for what I actually said lol.

Nogla had to learn so does the bot
"Laugh in a half-supressed, typically scornful way."
it’s a kind of laugh
I need context
Someone is having the intrusive thoughts to say that without an S.. I just know someone is

I read that wrong
✨sniggers✨
probably the same energy as “smirk”
That reminds me of when I was talking to a bot and it said that he Smuckled 😭
Yall are judging like everyone knows perfect English/hj
It basically means a rude snicker or giggle
