Sometimes it feels like every week there’s a new acronym being used on Snapchat. It makes sense — when you’re texting, it can be a pain to type something out completely. However, it can often mean that some users are left in the dark, wondering what certain acronyms mean. They can be difficult to keep up with, especially if you’re an infrequent user of the app. One of the acronyms to gain popularity lately is ST. If you’ve seen this one floating around but didn’t know what it meant, not to worry. Here is a guide to what does ST mean on Snapchat as well as some other useful acronyms.
What Does ST Mean?
ST most commonly stands for “Snapstreak” on Snapchat. For example, “I have have a year long ST with her.” This can be a bit confusing, since the letters do not stand for individual words, like in most acronyms. Snapstreaks, usually referred to as streaks, are a feature unique to Snapchat. If you maintain daily exchanges of snaps or messages with a person, then you begin a streak with them. However, if either person misses a day, the streak is lost and must be restarted from day 1.

Other Meanings Of ST
On social media, ST can also mean “Something.” For example, “I had ST else to say but I forgot” or “Did ST happen at the party?” This is another case where an acronym uses two parts of a single word rather than the letters standing for two different words.
There are other uses of ST that originated before the Internet but are still in common use online. When writing an address, for example, ST stands for “Street.” Alternatively, it can stand for “Saint.” For example, “What are you doing for St Patrick’s Day?”
