I hope WO'N doesn;t hate me for the diversion, but the word "bounder" interests me. I got the impression from way it was used in English novels that it suggested distaste for naive new students who exhibited too much enthusiasm, and then changed slightly to mean capable of unpleasant behaviour. What's your take on it?
