n knowledge. Pronounced like “mouse” with an N on the front of it. Not pronounced like “no use”.

n Northern England nothing.

n Scottish idiot, in a friendly sort of a way: You’ve parked in a disabled space, you numpty.

n someone with a screw loose. This applies to both the “insane” or “reckless” definitions, so a gentleman who scaled the Eiger naked and a chap who ate both of his parents could both validly be “nutters,” albeit in slightly different ways.
