- “Man, that was plain ignant.” One of the hosts on a show on BET was talking about a mistake one of the rappers had made.
Ignant
adjective; clipping
Synonymous with the term ignorant. This term is popular among African American slang; it is a shorter version of the word “ignorant.” The word came to be due to a mispronunciation of ignorant, and the altered spelling reflected this error. I am unsure as to whether or not “ignant” could be another level of ignorance.
