NTY stands for No thank you, a texting and chat abbreviation.
Polite but brief refusal of an offer, usually playful, as in "want to try my kale smoothie?" / "nty." Common in texts among friends and in online marketplace chats.
Example: Nty, I'm not watching another horror movie this week.
Usage notes
Short and to the point; among friends it is usually lighthearted. In formal or customer-facing contexts, the full phrase is more courteous and avoids sounding dismissive.
