stocious
Language: English
Part of speech: adj
Forms: form: more stocious
form: most stocious
form: stotious
form: stoshious
Etymology: Uncertain. The ending -ious appears to be a mock-Latinate jocular formation. Suggestions for the initial sto- or stot- include:
* Arbitrary
* From an unidentified Irish word
** David Crystal doubtfully suggests Irish stuagach "pitcher" or Irish stab "stoup".
* Jonathon Green suggests Scots stot "totter"
* Tony Thorne suggests "a dialect word meaning waterlogged or muddy" (?stodge)
Green distinguishes this word from stocious, Caribbean slang for "stylish; good-looking; arrogant", a corruption of ostentatious.
Senses: examples: text: By contrast they have a whole flock of words to discriminate the various degrees of intoxication. Beginning with the delightful “Drink-taken,” you have half-towed, sizzled, flukaw, flutered, spifflu, langers, and stocious. The last word rhymes with atrocious and means thickly speaking drunk. Anybody who is stocious ought to be taken home before he starts fighting—unless he is already past it, which he probably is.
ref: 1949, Charles Graves, Ireland Revisited, page 20:
text: Asked by the committee chairman, Mr Batt O'Keeffe, why young people were going out at night "to get absolutely stocious drunk", he suggested young people were influenced by what they saw around them, including the excesses of adults.
