1. nob

   In British slang, a "nob" is often used offensively to refer to a person who is rude or behaves inappropriately. However, historically, it is also a term used in the context of the British class system to describe a person of high social standing or a nobleman. Moreover, in the card game cribbage, "nob" refers to the bonus point scored for holding the jack of the turn-up suit. Like many English words, usage determines its meaning.
