(UK, West Country, Bristol, slang) Large.
Macky is Bristol and West Country slang for 'large' or 'big' — as in genuinely impressive in size. If something is macky, it's not just big, it's notably, noticeably oversized. Bristolians have a long tradition of colorful regional vocabulary and macky fits right in, giving you a fun alternative to 'massive' or 'huge'. You might hear it describing a portion of chips, a crowd at a gig, or anything else that's bigger than expected.
