a stingy or ungenerous person; one who is or is behaving n-gg-rdly. despite popular belief, the word is actually historically considered highly offensive. should not be confused with the word n-gg-r, which is also highly offensive, but in a different way. in everyday speech, the two words sound nearly identical, so it’s a good rule of thumb to save the word for print. it’s considered pretty archaic anyway, so it’s probably not a good idea to use it in any context unless you want to offend someone who has a less developed vocabulary.
