South African slang for a fool, idiot, or slow-witted person — borrowed directly from Afrikaans where it literally means 'dumb head'. Domkop is used affectionately between mates who've done something silly, or more pointedly when someone has genuinely made a boneheaded mistake. It has the punchy, satisfying quality of Afrikaans insults and is widely understood across South Africa's multilingual social landscape.
