"Boracic lint" nghĩa là gì?


"Boracic lint" có vần với skint -> từ này nghĩa là nghèo kiết xác, không một xu dính túi.

Ví dụ
Don’t you understand? I’m ruined. I’m boracic lint, I’m skint. The market has collapsed (sụp đổ). Let me do the decent thing.

Brassic is a shortened (tối giản) version of the Cockney rhyming slang phrase ‘boracic lint’ or ‘skint’ – with Urban Dictionary describing it thus: ‘broke, penniless, without means, on the bones of yer arse’.

The East Lancashire countryside may look beautiful but for the motley crew of scallywags who live there life is hard because they are brassic (short for boracic lint, Cockney rhyming slang for skint).

The big difference was that they owned racing cars and went racing with them whereas all I did was stand on the touchlines – boracic lint as they say (skint) – looked on, and wrote about it. Some things – I promise you – never change.
