Superior Person's Tuesday!

NACKET, n. Superior Person's word for a tennis ball-boy.




At least it rhymes with racket.






Each Tuesday, we’ll offer up a Superior Word for the edification of our Superior Readers, via the volumes of the inimitable Peter Bowler. You can purchase all or any of the four Superior Person’s Books of Words from the Godine website. Nacket appears in the third.
