1. 1

    A humdinger is something unusually good, , or strong — often a game, a show, a storm, or a loud argument. Informal and a bit old-fashioned-cheerful; you hear it in US English especially, and in sports talk. 'That match was a humdinger' means it was a cracker: close, loud, worth watching. Though actually, it can be any stand-out thing, not only games — a humdinger of a headache is a very bad one, and a humdinger of a story is one you will remember. Not a classroom word; more spoken, and newspaper-casual. It is a thing you can point to (a noun), not a way of being.

    精彩至極的事、過癮的一場(口語,帶「不得了」的意思)

組成US word, first seen in a Montana newspaper in 1883. It may be a blend of hummer (something that moves fast) and dinger (something outstanding), but that is not certain.
