To scupper is to deliberately sink a ship in order to prevent its capture. Sometimes ships are also scuppered to block a navigation channel at the entrance to a harbour to prevent invasion. In the vernacular it means to ruin one's chances through one's own actions.

Actually the word for sinking your own ship, usually by opening the sea-cocks, is “scuttle’, not scupper.
@grapeman63
@grapeman63 2 года назад
@@paddy864 Technically you are right (and wrong). According to the OED, 'to scupper' means "to sink (as in a ship or crew) deliberately". However, this meaning only dates from the 1970s. Prior to this the term was to 'scuttle' and 'scupper' meant to "kill in an ambush", which better fits its current vernacular meaning. This meaning of 'scupper' dates from 19th century military slang, although its origin is unknown. This is a case of mistaken usage, in the 1970s, that became so wide-spread that it changed the meaning of the original word. 'Scuttle' is, of course, still acceptable usage.

@grapeman63
@grapeman63 2 года назад
@@mikecollins8936 Barratry? Scuppering or scuttling a vessel might be the result of barratry but is not the act itself. Barratry is late Middle English from Old French 'barater' meaning to 'deceive' and perhaps influenced by Old Norse 'barrata' meaning to 'contest'. Barratry has three meanings in English, all of which are considered archaic: First, it is fraud or gross negligence by a master or crew of a ship to the detriment of the vessels owner. This might include scuttling, stealing or secreting the vessel as an act of privateering or mutiny the cargo having been sold on by the crew for their own profit, but it is not the act of scuttling itself. Second, it is the act of bringing vexatious litigation before a court of law, or of inciting such litigation. This is what Sidney Powell and Rudi Guilliani have been doing in the US. Third, it is the act of trading in the offices of church or state for personal profit.

I think a lot of people are getting scuppered and scuttled mixed up, The scuppers are the drainage channels that run around the deck of a ship, To scuttle a ship is to deliberately sink her. If one's chances have been scuppered they have gone down the drain, if they have been scuttled they have been well and truly sunk. It's a fine degree of separation from being recoverable with some work to completely no chance of getting things up and running again.

Scuppered has its roots in a nautical terminology. Scuppers are drains on boats to let water off the deck. Thus if something is scuppered it has gone down the drain.

- Scuppered is a nautical term. The scuppers are the holes at the edge of the deck on a ship which allow water to drain over the side. If you scupper a ship it means you made holes in the bottom to deliberately sink it. So if someones says "My plans have been scuppered" it means they've been sunk/torpedoed/ruined. - 'Rah' a very Hoorah Henry thing to say. Only used by expensive public school types with a rich mummy and daddy, completely out of touch with the real world and the sort of people who look down on the poor. Everyone else considers such people twats. - 'Alright?' is a greeting but not really 'Hi'. It's more like 'How's life?' or 'How's things?'. A typical response might be 'Yeah, you?' or 'Not bad. You?'. Sometimes people reply 'Not really' to a close friend in which case you may inquire further or simply say'sorry to hear that' and move on. - I'm not sure about saying it, but Boris IS dodgy! His actions just in the last week are a good example and there are plenty more. - I haven't heard 'Gassing someone up' since the 70s in the school playground. - A lot of the Love Island ones are very London, although most people are aware of what they mean. - Gutted, knackered and chuffed have been around for years and are common nationwide. N.B. Chuffed comes from the pleased sound you make when you blow your cheeks out, like a chuffing steam train. However chuff is also another name for a vagina or anal passage, especially in northern England. 'Tight as a gnat's chuff' is a common phrase meaning either someone who's a scrouge or a very tight passage.
