1. 1

    An oik is a rude British insult for a person someone thinks is not intelligent or well educated, and who speaks or behaves in a rough way — often a young man. It is class language: the speaker is looking down. It is informal, , and rather old-fashioned. You will hear it in British stories and old comedy more than in careful speech. Nobody is quite sure where it came from (early 20th century); it may copy a , uncultivated sound. You should not use it about real people.

    沒教養的粗人(英式罵人,帶階級歧視;不要拿來叫人)
