A title or name given to white men or, in some cases, women in the Indian state of Kerala.

Traditionally deriving from Sahib, which was an Arabic title meaning "Companion", it has now evolved into a name used by the native people (Malayalis) to colloquially refer to white people.

People of more northern states use "Saab" in a similar manner to "Sahib" being used as a respectful title, however, unlike Malayalis which is not used in a respectful manner.

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.
