Swick

= Swick: slang =

A conjunction of the words "sweet" and "sick" into a single super word.

"Sweet" and "sick" are often used colloquially as slang to describe something in a very positive manner.

The new word is used to describe something which is exceptionally and unusually good: "Dude, that powder snow was so swick!"."

This new word seems to have originated in the Vancouver metro area of British Columbia, Canada in 2007 amongst outdoor enthusiasts.
