Rock climbers have developed their own slang over the years. Here are ten common terms used in the climbing community:

1. Beta: Climbing advice that's sometimes more debated than the ending of a mystery novel. It's the secret sauce climbers share like precious treasure maps.

2. Send: When you conquer a route/problem without falling or hanging, it's like receiving a gold star from Mother Nature herself. "Send it!" becomes the climber's version of "Just do it!"

3. Crux: The part of the climb where you contemplate life choices and wonder if you'll ever make it to the top. The crux is where climbers have heart-to-hearts with the rock and themselves.

4. Pumped: That feeling when your forearms turn into overcooked noodles and you wonder if you'll ever hold a beer again, let alone another crimp.

5. Whipper: Not just a fall, but a theatrical performance. It's a blend of flying, flailing, and the profound relief of knowing your belayer's got your back (literally).

6. Choss: The climber's version of a magic trick—now you see a solid hold, now you don't. 

7. Slab: Where climbers pretend to be ballerinas while praying to the friction gods, over the sound of screaming toes in their head. It's the climbing style that can make you question why you left the ground.

8. Dyno: Like a mini trampoline show, but between a couple holds. Dynos are where climbers discover their inner flying squirrel.

9. Jug: The holy grail of holds. Finding a jug is like discovering an oasis in the desert—a place to rest, reflect, and possibly eat a snack.

10. Sandbag: That moment when a climb/problems' rating feels more like a prank than a guide. It's the universe's way of keeping climbers humble (and slightly confused).
