What is 'pyq' mean in Chinese Slang?

This one’s specific to WeChat, the popular Chinese messaging app. The letters "pyq" stand for "朋友圈" (péng yǒu quān), which is the name of WeChat’s social feed feature (similar to Facebook’s timeline). People use "pyq" to talk about posting or checking updates on WeChat Moments.

Example: If you share a photo, you might say, "Just posted this on pyq!"

Fun fact: It’s a must-know term if you’re using WeChat to stay connected with friends in China.
