"CAPCOM" means ; a nasa position, the liaison between an in-space crew and mission control. It is one of many casual words teens pick up from friends, social media, music or sport, and on its own it carries no particular warning. If you hear your teen use it, it is fair to ask what they mean by it in their friend group, since meanings drift quickly. Asking out of curiosity rather than alarm tends to keep the conversation open and useful.

Slang is read by different audiences for very different reasons. The For parents view re-explains the term in plain, non-judgemental language so a caregiver can understand what their child means without needing the surrounding subculture. The For English learners view focuses on register (when it's safe to use), formal alternatives, and common mistakes — what a textbook won't teach you.

Something is cap coded when it radiates dishonesty from the jump — every detail feels manufactured, every claim sounds rehearsed, and your instincts are screaming that none of this adds up. Cap coded isn't about proving someone is lying; it's about recognizing the energy of untruth before the receipts even surface. A story can be cap coded. A person can be cap coded. An entire press release can be cap coded. It's the slang equivalent of your gut telling you something is off before your brain catches up.
(transitive, slang, originally, _, AAVE) To spread caps (lies) or false rumors (about someone); to slander (someone); to insult (someone's) family.
Someone in cap mode has fully committed to lying — not slipping up once, but operating on a sustained frequency of dishonesty, exaggeration, or revisionist storytelling. Cap mode isn't a single lie; it's a behavioral state. They've stopped caring whether you believe them. The claims keep coming, each more unhinged than the last, and no amount of evidence seems to break the spell. Calling someone out for being in cap mode is both an accusation and an observation: this person has chosen fiction over reality and they're not coming back anytime soon.

"CAPCOM" is informal English meaning ; a nasa position, the liaison between an in-space crew and mission control. It is mainly used in North American English. A more formal or neutral equivalent would be something like "" expressed in standard vocabulary. A common mistake is to assume "CAPCOM" can replace its standard equivalent in every register; keep it for spoken or casual situations and use the formal form in writing. If you are a B2 or C1 learner, it is useful to recognise this word when you hear or read it, but think carefully about whether the situation really calls for it before using it yourself.
“Watched VSAV top 8 from EVO JP. Incredible. It's crazy Capcom will never make a game this cool again.”
“Jello Man was a psyop... Capcom lied, reploids died...”
“I don't know what the writers of Pragmata did, but every scene of Hugh and Diana discovering more together, the more it makes me tear up. It's got that hopecore that feels so refreshing in these trying times. I love RE9, but this might just be Capcom's best work to date.”
“I truly can't get over how Sherry Birkin is in the game bc that just adds fuel to the fire of "Capcom's cut-off age is 40 years old for women" so we're never going to see her in any other game and Jill and Claire may as well be dead.”
