JK

“JK” is an abbreviation often used in texting, online messaging, and social media, and it stands for “Just Kidding.” 

People use it to clarify that a previous statement or remark was meant in a lighthearted or joking manner and should not be taken seriously.

For example:

– “I can’t believe I failed the test… JK, I aced it!”

– “You’re the worst friend ever… JK, you’re the best!”

Encountering “JK” in conversation usually means that someone is using humor or sarcasm and wants to ensure that their previous statement is not taken seriously. It’s a way of lightening the mood or clarifying the intention behind a comment.
