Hott is an emphatic, double-t spelling of 'hot' when you mean sexually attractive — the extra letter doing heavy lifting to signal just how attractive someone is. It's the written equivalent of drawing out a word for emphasis, and it lands with the energy of someone genuinely floored by what they're looking at. Common in casual texts, social media captions, and comment sections, hott is playful and low-stakes, the kind of compliment that's flirtatious without being over the top.
(slang, originally, Australian) A physically or sexually attractive person.
