Short for "legitimate". NOT short for "
legitimately" which is a totally different word. The difference is roughly the same as between "good" and "well" – in case you
cared. An extremely popular yet badly understood
filler word.
Example:
Melvin: "
Bill Murray must be legit the most underrated comedian ever!"
Sparky: "IKR? He could've been literally one of the greatest, though."

this
word was obviously a short form of "
legitimate" but it no longer holds the same meaning as legitimate, since it has become very popular to use the word legit to mean something "cool", which really has
nothing to do with the word legitimate and therefore we should stop saying it.
