N-tower

English

Alternative forms

  • N tower
  • n-tower, n tower

Etymology

May either be a direct compound of N (the initial letter of nigger, or an ellipsis of n-word) +‎ tower, or a blend of n-word +‎ tower. Alternatively still, possibly a syncope of N-word tower.

Unlike n-word, this term may resist being spelled with a lowercase N to a greater degree, since the format of such towers often explicitly features image macros of capital Ns.
