- lairise85%
Australian slang meaning to show off, act flashy, or behave in a loud and attention-seeking way. If you're lairising, you're probably doing donuts in the car park, wearing something outrageously loud, or just being the most extra person in the room. It comes from 'lair,' which in Australian slang describes someone who's brash and showy. The verb form 'lairise' brings an energetic sense of ongoing performance — it's not just looking flash, it's actively putting on a show.
- lairize83%
An obsolete Australian slang verb meaning to act in a flashy, ostentatious, or showy manner. Derived from 'lair' (Australian slang for a flashy, vulgar person), this verb form is now largely dated. The noun 'lair' and adjective 'lairy' (gaudy, inappropriately showy) survive in current Australian English, making 'lairize' the effectively extinct verb form of a still-active word family. 'Lairy' remains current while the verb quietly retired.
