Cool, neat, nifty, suave. Origin: In about 2000 (give or take a year), a student taking Old English at a [Wisconsin] [university] saw the word 'swa' used to mean 'so; thus' in an Old English text. It reminded this student of the word 'suave' (which in common use is roughly similar in meaning to 'cool'), and the student started using 'swa' to mean 'cool' around friends and [associates] (and continued doing so after moving to the West Coast). It caught on.
