English[edit]
Adjective[edit]
baaad
- Elongated form of bad.
- 1996, John Tierney, “Recycling is Garbage”, in New York Times[1]:
- "How does all this make you feel?"
"Baaaad", the students moaned.
- 2012, K. Bennett, The Year of Eating Dangerously[2] (urban fantasy), page 10:
- The last living biker came at me with a knife, a big honking knife, the kind that makes an outlaw feel really baaaad. I hate getting cut. That leaves a definite scar on my not so resilient skin.
Usage notes[edit]
- As with other elongated forms, the number of repetitions of the vowel is arbitrary; a longer spelling indicates a longer pronunciation by the speaker, but not necessarily a greater intensity of meaning.
