Thingmaker Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 Dictionary.com had no entry for "knackering." I deduce that it is one of those UKish colloquialisms that so enchant us Yanks. What, pray tell, is it's meaning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 Here's what I found of the root word on Webster.com:Main Entry: knack·er Pronunciation: 'na-k&rFunction: nounEtymology: probably from English dialect, saddlemakerDate: 18121 British : a buyer of worn-out domestic animals or their carcasses for use especially as animal food or fertilizer2 British : a buyer of old structures for their constituent materialsStill doesn't make too much sense. ??? You could always do what I do, Thingmaker. Just replace the word with "smurfy" and see if it doesn't somehow make more sense. -Joseph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Mal Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 To explain for the American Monkey's:Knackering, from Knacker meaning to ruinNot to be confused with Knackered which means tired or worn out.Just call me Mr. Colloquialism Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
