A colourful bit of Scottish dialect, bangsome means quarrelsome, combative, or spoiling for a fight. Someone bangsome is always ready to argue, never backs down, and probably enjoys a good row more than they should. It's a vivid, punchy word that sounds exactly like what it means — there's something almost physical about it. While it's not in everyday use, it's the kind of Scots vocabulary that pops up in historical fiction, dialect poetry, and conversations among Scots with a taste for the old words.
