Definition & Description of Zaheef زهيّف

Zaheef is a slang word for someone who’s boring, dull, or not fun to hang out with. The root comes from zahef (زَهِف), which means “flat” or “dull.”

Among Saudi youth, calling someone zaheef is a light insult — usually when someone refuses to join an outing, kills the vibe, or just isn’t contributing to the fun.

It’s commonly heard in casual conversations, especially in social groups or online chats.
