A slang term used to describe a Pakistani immigrant or descent. In the United Kingdom, it is a racist slur used against not only Pakistanis, but also those from other parts of South Asia. However, it is not considered offensive when used amongst people of South Asian origin. Its degree of offensiveness is similar to that of a non-African American calling an African American a "Nigger".
"Get your butt off this English club, you bloody Paki!" Another good example is its usage in the famous low budget British Indian movie "Bend It Like Beckham", where Jasminder, a Indian girl, pushed an English girl for calling her a 'Paki' in the middle of a soccer game.
