British slang intensifier meaning 'extremely' or 'very,' used to emphasise an adjective — as in 'a socking great lie' or 'a socking big house.' The word punches with the same weight as 'whopping' or 'stonking,' emphasising size, scale, or degree. More common in older British English and now carries a slightly old-fashioned flavour, though it occasionally resurfaces for comic or nostalgic effect.
