それな
Sorena
それな
A condensed version of "それ、そうだよね" (sore, sou da yo ne = "that, right?"). Exploded on social media in the early 2010s and became a staple in spoken conversation too. It is the ultimate low-effort agreement — just say "それな" and you have expressed deep agreement without elaborating. The upgraded version "ほんそれ" (honsore = "literally that" / "honestly, that") adds even more emphasis.
