Skegness is a seaside town on the east coast of England, in Lincolnshire, looking out on the North Sea. For a long time it has been a popular day-trip and holiday place, especially for working-class families from the Midlands and other inland parts of central England — cheap trains, beach, amusements, fish and chips, and holiday camps. English people sometimes it to “Skeggy.” The name is a place, so it takes a capital letter. In British talk it can carry a , not-fancy holiday picture; that is social colour, not an insult you should copy unless you know the joke.
斯凱格內斯(英格蘭東岸、深受中部勞工家庭歡迎的海邊小鎮)
組成From either the old Norse personal name Skeggi, or Old Norse skegg (“beard”), plus nes (“headland”). So the name is basically “Skeggi’s headland” or “beard headland.”
