injun

a racially offensive epithet used towards native americans. however, columbus was wrong, this racial slur was in fact meant for inhabitants of india and has now been recently claimed at the university of washington.

modern equivalent of “n-gg-“, except its used to refer to indians who, thanks to k-mar, are finally in mainstream american culture.

can be used in reference to other people who are “down with the brown”. this even includes white people, as long as they’re tight with some indians.

n. derogatory term for a native american.
let’s play cowboys and injuns.
a casual american or canadian corruption of the term “indian”, referring to native americans. the earliest europeans thought they had landed in india and applied “indian” to the indigenous population. “injun” more commonly heard during a period when the term “indian” was used, often pr-nounced in later years only by children. not typically meant as derogatory, as american “indians” came to be admired during the latter period of common usage. rarely used today, if so used in a typically light-hearted if politically-incorrect fashion. can be derogatory given intent and inflection.
