Somewhat gaudy; slightly showy or flashy in a cheap or tasteless way.
Formed from 'gaudy' with the -ish suffix, which creates an adjective meaning 'somewhat' or 'rather' the original quality.
The -ish suffix is a linguistic hedging tool: while 'gaudy' is definitive, 'gaudish' means 'kinda sorta gaudy'—giving English speakers a way to soften judgments.
