CategoriesTexting & Internet Slang

G2G stands for Got to go, a texting and chat abbreviation.

Announces that the writer must leave the conversation, often abruptly because a parent, boss or bus has arrived. The 2 replaces "to," in keeping with other number-based texting spellings such as 2day and 2nite.

Example: Mom's calling me for dinner, g2g, talk tonight!

Usage notes

Equivalent to GTG, which is somewhat more common. Popular in 2000s instant messaging and still used by younger users. Neutral in tone, though leaving with only "g2g" can feel curt in a serious conversation.
