Unfragged means: Not specified as a military target.. It is military jargon and mostly appears in service contexts, war fiction, or among veterans and their families. There is no real cause for parental concern; it is descriptive vocabulary rather than risky behaviour. If your teen uses it, context will usually make the intent clear. A short, curious question about where they heard it is usually all that is needed to know whether to follow up.

For ESL learners
unfragged means: Not specified as a military target.. Register: informal, military jargon. Suitable only for casual conversation, chat and social media. Do not use in business, academic or news writing. A common learner mistake is using the word in a register it does not fit, or assuming a single global meaning; native speakers immediately notice when slang appears in formal contexts, so always check the surrounding register before producing it yourself.

For specific readers
Why is this section here?
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.

Fraggable describes a target in a video game that can be killed or eliminated — easy pickings for a skilled player. Derived from 'frag', the FPS gaming term for a kill, fraggable entered gamer vocabulary as a way to evaluate threats. A low-health enemy out in the open? Totally fraggable. A boss with a shield and three health bars? Not so much. It's also occasionally used outside gaming to mean anyone or anything that's vulnerable and ripe for a takedown.
