ned

Ned means: A person, usually a youth, of low social standing and education, a violent disposition and with a particular style of dress , speech and behaviour.. There is no real cause for parental concern; it is descriptive vocabulary rather than risky behaviour. It is an education-system term, so usage is institutional and routine. It is sporting vocabulary and harmless in itself.

ned means: A person, usually a youth, of low social standing and education, a violent disposition and with a particular style of dress , speech and behaviour.. Register: neutral, standard English. Common learner mistake is using the word in a register it does not fit, or assuming a single global meaning; always check the context before producing it yourself. A formal-English equivalent (a synonym or descriptive phrase) is usually safer in writing. When in doubt, paraphrase rather than reuse the slang form.
