Morphology

fun + kiki

The form is a simple adjective + noun composition: 'fun' (pleasant, amusing) modifies 'kiki' (a gathering/party), so a learner who knows both constituent meanings can directly infer 'an enjoyable informal party'. That said, 'kiki' is slang and often absent from dictionaries or cross‑linguistic parallels, so many B1 learners will not know that noun; nevertheless, given knowledge of the constituents the combination is fully compositional.

Etymology

The noun fun kiki comes from gay and drag slang where a kiki was a small 'get-together' to chat, laugh and dance. The image of friends giggling and sharing stories explains why 'fun kiki' means a lively, informal 'party'.
