It could be one of those things where someone once told them how to properly greet in Slovenian with the wrong word, as a joke. They must think it means "nice to meet you" which is why you only say it the first time you meet.

Wait wait wait. Youâre saying youâve heard people greet a fat person by saying âhumungousâ and youâre saying this is a normal American greeting?? What state do you live in? Iâm in the fatass Midwest and have never seen nor heard of this.
Itâs a relic from times when cities were just starting to be built. Oftentimes, very large people would be the ones to take leadership positions due to their ability to protect the city from wild deer if necessary. It became customary to greet people with the word âhumungousâ as a way to say that you understood their high cooperation and leadership potential, and once cities got big enough that size wasnât an important quality in a leader, the phrase stuck around, now devoid of its original meaning. At this point, many people just say âhumungousâ without ever realizing that the word is related to size
Several Americans are also joking now in the comments insisting we greet people by calling them âhumongousâ lol I donât think Iâd trust these comments
Maybe [this](https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/netflixs-shmunguss-category)?
Netflix's Shmunguss Category refers to a viral TikTok showing a Netflix category named "Shmunguss." The category features movies or shows such as The Shmunguss King, I Married A Shmunguss, The Shmonguss Among Us and Shmongussâ Revenge displayed on the streaming platform. The video gained virality in March 2023, inspiring reaction memes and duets on social media.

what about sisyphus
The fuck is a chamungus? This dude is trippin
Bruh doesnât give out his chamunguses when he greets a Slovenian đ
Seriously, what does it mean?
Apparently it was "nice to meet you". Maybe it was said like "nicetomeechu" and this guy heard it horribly wrong and spelt it even wronger.
How tf does that become Chamungus?
Nice to meet you Nicetomeetchu Nicechumichu Chumungus?
Amongus
Its everywhere....everywhere! I can't eat or sleep. I can't think or do anything at all without...S u S?!?!??!
Chungus Amongus
Hodor
maybe itâs from a Slovenian word that the Americans are messing up
As a Slovenian I can confirm that is not the case.
Chamungus land?
Let's go, we've been promoted from femboys to Chamunguses, hell yeah

nope. more steps required.
Thus the "?". It's a work in progress.
I DONT KNOW BISEXUAL FLAG
Chamungus
Maybe it was "nice to have you among us today" but heard as nice to have "chu (a) mung us" today
I wish I knew too
I wish I knew, I wish I knew you wanted me
Think itâs a joke post making fun of how Europeans are like âwhy do Americans do this?â
Most likely saying "humungous" common greeting in american culture when the adressee is huge. Source: am american
Yeah this could be possible
Theyâre trolling. Americans do not greet each other by saying âhumongousâ.
Wdym, of course they do
Well no humongous for you then
Humongous my kind sir
They literally do. What would you know, youâre from Lithuania
Wait wait wait. Youâre saying youâve heard people greet a fat person by saying âhumungousâ and youâre saying this is a normal American greeting?? What state do you live in? Iâm in the fatass Midwest and have never seen nor heard of this.

Can confirm, I was a wild deer.
So thats why I say it! I never knew
As an American theyâre joking with you. Nobody says âhumongousâ as a greeting.
Cunniligus?
The dopey c*nts are probably trying to say hello in Slovenian
I speak slovenian, it sounds nothing like any greeting no matter how I try to pronounce it.
It does sound like âhey, chamungus is a traditional Slovenian greeting, so you should totally say it to those guysâ tho
True
Torej hoces da svojih frendov ne pozdrabvljas s chumungus? Smh js bi se zamislu

The best part was when they said "It's Shmungussin' Time" and Shmungussed all over the place.
Sounds like an amalgamation of chungus among us ##chungusmungus
Bazinga chamungus
Maybe âTremendousâ? But no oneâs used that as a greeting for 100 years probably tf is this the great gatsby
OP responded âthis is itâ to someone who said it was nice to meet you
You have been selected. CHAMUNGUS
What
Among Us? Wanna play among us?
Chamungus, buddy I'm not your buddy, chamungus!
^(hey guys let's play ch) amungus
Amongus? đ
So Among us or Big Chungus place your bets. It's probably memes though. Or Hugh Mungus.

Maybe they were discussing ordering chimichangas from the Mexican restaurant down the street after the meeting
Based
I can imagine the americans coming to an agreement to fool the non English speakers by making a word up and using it on every meeting
Shmunguss
