A word used to define those who live in Co. Leitrim, Ireland and are usually not capable of functioning in higher society (in Dublin, to which they often refer as "The Pale") without making a fool of themselves on a regular basis. Often make stupid mistakes, put their foot in their mouth and tend to be extremely socially awkward in most situations. Unless they're milking cows. Being ák-ward usually means they excel at this and other farming activities. Generally adamantly deny their culchie heritage.
Girl 1: OMG We should go to IKEA to get Secret Santa gifts!
Girl 2: Dude. Way to be Ák-ward and mention our Secret Santa in front of people we didn't include in it!
Girl 1: Woops.

A-K ward 

A more clumsy way to say the word awkward. Used only to describe EXTREMELY awkward situations. This word is also used as a substitute for saying, "man this is awkward".
Taking a girl out on a date to the movies, only to see your current girlfriend there is A-K ward.

The incorrect spelling of the word awkward.

Used by morons and/or K-5th grade.

Typically used when the situation doesn't call for it, and is thus typically overused and unfunny (misspelled or not, turns out).
Stargrl789: and then he called his parents and asked them to give us a ride!

Unfunnytwat1357: sooo akward.

akward arm situation

When you are on a plane, in a movie theater, etc. and there is only one arm rest and you and the person sitting next to you both want it.
Jane was in the movie theater on Monday night and there was a man sitting next to her. They both wanted the arm rest.

A classic akward arm situation.
