English word of the day

Sarah has been giving me English lessons.  English lessons you say?  Yes.  Apparently, I've got it all wrong.


Word of the day: 
Numpty:  A bit of an idiot. 


It's also in the Urban Dictionary:
  • Someone who (sometimes unwittingly) by speech or action demonstrates a lack of knowledge or misconception of a particular subject or situation to the amusement of others. 
  • A good humoured admonition, a term of endearment 

Use it well.  In trade, I told her what a dingleberry is.
