amishing 

Being a term similar to the Indonesian slang term "ngebaduy", this term "amishing" refers to the occurrence where a group of people deliberately choose to go AFK from the modern world and "wean" from modern technology (e.g. electricity, smartphone). Please note that the suffix "-ing" is similar to the Indonesian prefix "nge-", which turns a noun into a verb.
After a week of amishing in the woods, we felt rejuvenated and more connected to nature without our smartphones.

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.
