Doodlesack is an old-fashioned and now mostly humorous British and dialectal word for bagpipes. Borrowed from the German Dudelsack — meaning something like drone-bag — the word captures both the wailing, droning sound of the instrument and its physical form as a bag that puffs air through pipes. Today it survives mainly as a novelty or comedy word, guaranteed to raise a smile even among people unfamiliar with its origins.
