wanker
Noun: 1. A person who masturbates: A vulgar slang term, primarily used in British and Commonwealth English, to directly refer to someone who engages in masturbation. 2. A contemptible or foolish person: A strong term of abuse or insult, implying someone is worthless, annoying, or incompetent. This meaning is more common in general derogatory use.
This is a highly offensive and vulgar slang term. It is used for: * Expressing extreme contempt, anger, or dismissal towards someone. * As a general insult, often without literal reference to masturbation.
Examples: * He's a complete wanker; don't listen to his advice. (Here, it means a foolish or contemptible person.) * The referee is a wanker! (Used as a general insult expressing anger.) * (Vulgar, literal) The graffiti called him a wanker. (Directly using the term's original, anatomical meaning.)
- The term is considered much more offensive in some cultures (like the US) than in others (like the UK or Australia), though it is always vulgar.
- It can be intensified with adjectives like "absolute," "total," or "complete."
