See meanings and uses of SAX!Slangs & AI meanings
In reference to John Coltrane, the famous Jazz saxophonist. Used in the film "The Royal Tenenbaum's"
Means "as well" but implies an unexpected extra, e.g. "I not only lost my job but they prosecuted me to boot!!", or "Not only did I get into the disco, free - but I won a "spot prize" to boot!" (ed: this is an interesting expression that I've often used - does anyone have any clues where it originated and how?) Notes Serves me right for asking I suppose, but Steve Shervais passed on the following useful information: According to Clark Hall's Concise Anglo-Saxon Dictionary, "bot" is 'compensation for an injury', and "to bot" means "besides, moreover." In a related item, "manbot" was the money paid to the lord for loss of a man,_in_addition_to_ the wergeld paid to his relatives. (ed: I like this job... you learn *such* a lot of useless information!)
Saxophone
Sexual intercourse Originally from a UK TV show called Tis Was - introduced by Chris Tarrant amongst others. The show, originally a childrens programme, was famous for many oddball jokes and even created a "hit" dance called, the "Dying Fly" which pretty much revolved around people lying on the floor on their backs and waving arms and legs in the air. And who will ever forget "The Bucket Song'??? (ed: well me obviously cos I don't have any lyrics) Anyway... Bonk was reportedly created by reversing the word "knob" and applying it as a description to women's 'naughty bits'. It quickly mutated into a euphemism for the sexual act itself. It spread over the world and and has remained a favourite substitute for other better known but more offensive anglo-saxon terms for sexual intercourse. (ed: by the way... if anyone has the words to "The Bucket Song" I'd much appreciate them)
Saxa is Australian slang for saxophone.
Originally denoted the act of sexual intercourse but over the years has become associated with vulgarity. Note: We had a query asking if "fuck" was an acronym for "Fornication under Consent of the King" on the basis of the old "first fruits" stories (ed: anyone remember the real term for that??). The idea being this ancient anglo-saxon word originated in 'ancient England' when permission had to be granted for couples to conceive a child? The questioner read that a placard had to be hung on the door of the wedded pair formally acknowledging that permission had been sought and granted from the reigning monarch....! Another suggestion has been that this word came from the term "For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge". People who practised carnal knowledge were caught out on convict ships where the practise was illegal. Both sound plausible - but unfortunately incorrect. According to Partridge (always the author of choice) the word actually has traceable roots in ancient Egyptian, with borrowings from a pre Anglo-Saxon, and possible pre Celtic language. But in any case, the word has been in general use for such a long time, it's true origins are now well shielded by the mists of time.
