Gaucy

/ˈɡɔːsi/ adjective

Definition

Variant spelling of 'gaucie'; a Scottish word meaning bold, forward, or confidently cheerful, sometimes with connotations of being overly familiar or impudent.

Etymology

Scottish dialectal variant of 'gaucie,' with spelling variations typical of Scottish English before standardization.

Kelly Says

Before dictionaries standardized spelling, the same word could be written five different ways—'gaucy,' 'gaucie,' 'gawcy'—which is why old Scottish documents are like linguistic puzzles.
