An American euphemistic expletive standing in for 'goddamn.' Common in older rural and Western American speech, allowing speakers to express strong frustration without the blasphemous edge of the original. Still occasionally used for comic or period effect. Sits alongside 'dadblame,' 'dagnabbit,' and similar minced oaths that preserved emotional force while softening religious offense.
'That goldarn tractor broke down again right in the middle of harvest,' he muttered.
