Definition
Plural of binge; multiple instances of uncontrolled indulgence in eating, drinking, or other activities.
Etymology
Plural form of 'binge,' which has roots in Midlands dialectal English from around 1875, possibly from 'binge' meaning to soak.
Kelly Says
Psychologists specifically use the term 'binge' to describe episodes of loss of control—it's a word that evolved from informal speech into clinical terminology, showing how everyday language shapes medical science.
