dag

1. noun

a matted lock of wool and excrement on a sheep's behind. From British dialect AUSTRALIA, 1891.

a person who is eccentric and humorous; a real character; a wag. Formerly common, now obsolete (but see sense 3). Some have suggested that the origin of this term lies in the British dialect term 'a feat set as a dare', but the examples given are less than convincing AUSTRALIA, 1875.

a person who is dull and conservative; a person who has no sense of fashion; an uncool or unhip person. Now the commonest meaning. It is widely believed that it derives from sense 1, but this is not the case. Probably partially from sense 2 and partially a backformation from DAGGY sense 2. Formerly and still to some extent quite an insult, equivalent to GEEK and NERD, but recently also used in an affectionate manner, and jocularly 'reclaimed' as a term of approval. This reclamation has led to a semantic shift where the meaning can be 'uncool in an amusing or eccentric way', and thus this sense now overlaps with that of sense 2 AUSTRALIA, 1966.

a daring act NEW ZEALAND, 1984

2. verb

to engage in anal sex US, 2001.

to participate in serial, reciprocal, homosexual oral sex US, 1990
