Term in Bahamian dialect meaning "badly mangled" or "warped." It is always followed with the word "up" hence kapunkle up.

Kapunkle up is used more to describe how a person looks or feels and less to describe objects.
"Iron your clothes bey, you look so kapunkle up" - meaning ragged. The clothes on their own will be described as rough-dry but wearing them will make you look kapunkle up.
