I’ve never heard it. Do you mean “slag” maybe ?
Or when it comes to kids swearing at them. My son in law does this and it’s disturbing and crude.
I have heard skag whilst in school
Not sure anyone is arguing it’s not a revolting word. It’s extremely ugly is terms of what it means and how it sounds. I’d never use it. It always put me off how back in the 90s it was used to describe a type of jumpy dance at ska shows (“skanking.”)
Skag is heroin.
Yes. I meant “slag”
I missed it on preview
That’s the only sense I’ve seen it used.
My mistake. So sorry.
Since this is the Dope, apparently skag is attested from the 1920s to mean an unattractive woman , and is a possible source for today’s skank.
I had read that same thing.
Now, we know where I got it.
