SLOBBERER Meaning and Definition

1. A slobberer is a noun that refers to a person or an animal who excessively and carelessly salivates or drools, often accompanied by messy and uncontrolled spit or moisture escaping their mouth. The term is typically used in a slightly derogatory manner to describe someone who lacks oral hygiene or manners, resulting in a constant flow of saliva or drool.

   In the context of animals, slobberers are commonly observed among certain breeds with loose jowls, such as mastiffs or Saint Bernards, whose drooling is often related to their physical characteristics. However, it can also describe any creature that has difficulties controlling saliva, often due to excitement, illness, or dental problems. This term can extend to individuals who excessively drool while sleeping or those with certain medical conditions that affect saliva production.

   When applied to humans, calling someone a slobberer can be considered rude or disrespectful, as it implies a negative judgment on their appearance or behavior. It is essential to use this term with caution and sensitivity. Nevertheless, it may be used informally to playfully describe someone who exhibits messy eating habits or lacks control over their saliva when speaking.

Etymology of SLOBBERER

The word slobberer is derived from the verb slobber, which originated from Middle English.
