PRANCY: adverb, sometimes an adjective. pran-see An expression of joy, curiosity, and adventure.

Background: When rabbits are happy, they jump and twist, called a binky. When a rabbit binkies, it jumps into the air, often with twists and flicks of its feet and head. Unfortunately they don't judge where they're going to land, and binky into the wall, tree, or furniture.

When a person feels PRANCY, the same can happen, stumble into a chair or trip down the stairs. Still joyful.
Excited about the state of the skies — meteor showers and full moon and lunar eclipse solstice. Even though I don't have a clue what they mean, I'm all prancy inside about these.

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
