digs
When used to refer to living quarters, this term is a plural-only noun. It is never used in the singular to describe a single room or house, and it carries a casual, often bohemian or dated connotation, suggesting temporary or modest accommodations.
As a slang verb meaning to like or appreciate, the word is highly informal and evokes the counterculture of the 1960s. While still understood, it may sound anachronistic in professional settings. When used as a noun for insults, it typically appears in the phrase "taking digs" or "trading digs," emphasizing a reciprocal or targeted exchange of mockery.
