A thing or person which bangs, in any sense.
An informal American expression used almost exclusively in the phrase 'the whole jimbang,' meaning the entire thing, the whole lot, everything included — nothing left out. It's a colorful way to say 'all of it' without sounding too formal. Think 'the whole shebang' but with slightly more folksy flair. You'd use it when listing things gets exhausting and you just want to sweep it all into one word.
(Scotland) An exclamation of surprise.
(Scotland) quarrelsome.
A colourful bit of Scottish dialect, bangsome means quarrelsome, combative, or spoiling for a fight. Someone bangsome is always ready to argue, never backs down, and probably enjoys a good row more than they should. It's a vivid, punchy word that sounds exactly like what it means — there's something almost physical about it. While it's not in everyday use, it's the kind of Scots vocabulary that pops up in historical fiction, dialect poetry, and conversations among Scots with a taste for the old words.
