Unsplash: Solen FeyissaAs TikTok has continued to dominate digital culture, we\u2019ve had to get used to a lot of different phrases and lingo that have been adopted by users on the app. One that frequently pops up on TikTok, and across social media as a whole, is \u2018ratio.\u2019 As with any online lingo, like \u2018accountant\u2019 or FYP, the meaning of \u2018ratio\u2019 on TikTok is a little different to how we use the word in everyday life. What does ratio mean on TikTok? If you have been \u2018ratioed\u2019 on TikTok, it usually means that your comment has more replies to it than it has likes. This implies that there are more people disagreeing with your comment than there are people agreeing with it. So, when someone\u2019s comment has been inundated with responses and doesn\u2019t have a lot of support in terms of likes, it is safe to assume that they have had a pretty bad take on something and have been \u201cratioed\u201d as a result. https:\/\/twitter.com\/HONEYUNGSEO\/status\/1406666042412134407 Being ratioed also applies if a reply to your comment has more likes than your original comment, or if a TikTok has more comments than it does likes. The term \u2018ratioed\u2019 comes from another Gen Z-populated social media platform: Twitter. If you Tweet something that proves to be unpopular, you might find yourself getting more Quote Tweets from people disagreeing with and\/or mocking you than you do likes. If this happens to you, well, it\u2019s safe to assume that you\u2019ve been ratioed. Is being ratioed on TikTok always a bad thing? Not always. To make things more confusing, there is more than one way the word \u2018ratio\u2019 is used on TikTok. Sometimes, a user might comment on a TikTok saying \u201cratio me 1:1\u201d. This means that they want the likes on their comment to match the likes of the TikTok they\u2019re commenting on. So, if a TikTok has 1,000 likes, the user\u2019s comment will need to also have 1,000 likes in order to achieve a 1:1 ratio.

If, for example, a user comments: \u201cRatio me 1:1:1,\u201d this means that they want their comment as well as the reply to their comment to have the same number of likes as their original TikTok.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
