3. What does G mean in sports?

Games played

G is a common abbreviation in competitions that represents the number of games played by a player or team. For example, you may see "G" in baseball statistics to keep track of a team's or player's number of games.

Other sports that use G include American football, basketball, hockey, and soccer (internationally known as football). In addition to stats, you may also see people use G (or "g") for just "games" (and not "games played").

For example, a Yankees fan may remark, "cole has a sub-1.0 era in 6 g!!" on a social site or online forum. Or, a gamer may message another gamer "gg! rematch?" to let them know they played a good game and would like to play again.

Example

He has 5 HR in 3 G, that's amazing!
Beast!

4. What is g short for in measurements?

Gram

G is short for gram, a unit of measurement in the International System of Units (SI) equal to one one-thousandth of a kilogram. People may use it when referring to the size of food, small objects (like pens or phones), drugs, etc.

For example, an item for sale at a store may have its amount listed in grams as a number followed by "g" on its package. Or, if a person is looking to purchase a gram of weed (hopefully in a state where it is perfectly legal), they may ask a dealer, "How much for a g of the good stuff?"

5. What is g short for?

Grin

If you want to communicate that you are grinning when the other person can't see your face, send "g" or "<G>." It is a helpful alternative to an emoticon when you cannot use one or when you are just too lazy to navigate away from the traditional QWERTY keyboard.

Scenarios where you might use "g" include when being sarcastic and not wanting the recipient to take you seriously or when you are trying to be playful and flirtatious. For example, if you make a morbid joke in a text, you might want to end it with a <g>.

Example

Yeah, I think we make a pretty good team. <g>
