How it's used
This is an extremely aggressive and vulgar imperative used to dismiss someone. It functions as a highly offensive version of 走開, where the insertion of 撚 acts as an intensifier that conveys intense anger or contempt. Because it is considered profanity, it should be avoided in all professional, social, or polite settings to prevent serious conflict.
