Transcript of “Bockety”
Music
Here’s another word recently introduced into the Oxford English Dictionary that probably comes from Irish.
The word is bockety. B-O-C-K-E-T-Y, bockety.
If you’re talking about a person who’s bockety, they have trouble walking.
But you can also use the word boccaty to refer to anything that’s fallen into a state of disrepair.
You know, my boccaty old chair over there.
But I love this term.
I’m going to start using it.
You know, you can talk about your boccaty knee won’t let you do this or that.
Oh, yeah.
It’s got a bit of rhythm already built into the word, right?
The awkwardness or the lack of balance is right there in boccaty, boccaty, boccaty, boccaty, boccaty.
It’s like a car with a bent axle.
Boggity, boggity, boggity, boggity.
Or the grocery cart that doesn’t roll well.
Right.
Or both the wheels go in the same direction.
Boggity, boggity, boggity, boggity.
