Auf Lock
easy / no problem; relaxed, casually (short for 'auf locker')
Origin
'Auf Lock' is a shortening of 'auf locker' and means relaxed, chilled, stress-free or without any problems. It spread through rap (notably Money Boy) and platforms such as Twitch and TikTok, and made the Top 10 for German Youth Word of the Year 2023. An alternative reading derives it from English 'lock', but the derivation from 'locker' (loose/relaxed) is considered more plausible.
