Wrecker means: A person or company that dismantles old or wrecked vehicles or other items, to reclaim useful parts.. It is mainly Australian English and may not be understood outside that context. There is no real cause for parental concern; it is descriptive vocabulary rather than risky behaviour. If your teen uses it, context will usually make the intent clear. A short, curious question about where they heard it is usually all that is needed to know whether to follow up.

Slang is read by different audiences for very different reasons. The For parents view re-explains the term in plain, non-judgemental language so a caregiver can understand what their child means without needing the surrounding subculture. The For English learners view focuses on register (when it's safe to use), formal alternatives, and common mistakes — what a textbook won't teach you.

A car breaker is someone who works in the business of dismantling old or written-off vehicles for scrap and salvageable parts — the British term for what Americans might call a junkyard worker or auto wrecker. Car breakers' yards are the ecosystems where dead cars go to have their useful parts harvested. The term is matter-of-fact and functional rather than slang-heavy.
Something or someone that has been ruined.
British and Commonwealth English term for a person or business that dismantles end-of-life vehicles for parts and scrap. The US equivalent is 'auto wrecker' or 'junkyard operator'. Car breakers typically operate 'breakers' yards' where salvageable parts can be bought cheaply by DIY mechanics. The term is standard in the UK automotive trade and repair culture rather than particularly slangy. The term is instantly understood across all Commonwealth countries.

wrecker means: A person or company that dismantles old or wrecked vehicles or other items, to reclaim useful parts.. Register: informal, Australian English. Often not understood outside its region; gloss the word on first use when writing for an international audience. A common learner mistake is using the word in a register it does not fit, or assuming a single global meaning; native speakers immediately notice when slang appears in formal contexts, so always check the surrounding register before producing it yourself.
