Pronunciation
JAGOFF/ˈJAꞬˌÔF/
In fact, we were so pleased at this development, that we just now noticed something ELSE was missing from the Oxford Dictionary. There’s an additional definition. It’s a tiny change, but 100% necessary.
Here are the proper corrections:
Jagoff: Noun (chiefly in Western Pennsylvania).
A stupid, irritating, or contemptible person, you angrily say, “Ya Jagoff!”
Term of endearment, with a smile and a hug, you say, “Ya Jagoff!”
Expressing being startled, “You scared the HECK outta me, Ya Jagoff!”
