"Ango" is a slang term that originated in the African American Vernacular English (AAVE) dialect. It is used to describe a feeling of deep sadness, melancholy, or depression. The word is often used to express a sense of hopelessness or despair, and it can be similar in meaning to the word "depression."

The etymology of the word "ango" is not well-documented, but it is believed to have originated in the African American community in the southern United States. Some sources suggest that it may be related to the word "anguish," which refers to intense emotional pain or suffering.
