Meaning:
“尬聊”means “awkward conversation” or “chat awkwardly.”The phrase was created by Chinese netizens to describe an awkward conversation between two people, especially between a woman and a man who can’t understand the woman’s interest but is eager to leave a good impression.
Netizens also use the phrase to express that speechless feeling when one can’t find an interesting topic in a conversation but has to keep talking to change an awkward situation.
Example:
A:今天天气不错。
Jīntiān tiānqì búcuò。
Nice weather today.
B: 嗯。èn。
Yep.
A:之前有段时间挺冷的,都快冻死了。
Zhīqián yǒuduàn shíjiān tǐnglěngde,dōu kuài dòngsǐ le。
A few days ago, it was quite cold. I was freezing to death.
B:你没死啊。
Nǐ méisǐ ā。
But you didn’ t die.
