What is a luesome nit?

Question

c**p! So it couldn't mean "lovely nut"?

Answer 1

a luesome nit is used sometimes by the British.  you can't find that word on google or anything because that word is not used in America.  the definition is something or someone that is extremely annoying.  comeing from the word nit luesome is meaning to a more extreme annoying.  ok for example, if your a nit ur just annoying but if your a luesome nit that you are extremely annoying.  so if you get called a luesome nit that is not a good thing.  luesome is another word used by the british(started around 1930's) meaning extremely was put together with nit.  therefore, luesome nit was born.
