Bankert

Bankert is a term of disparagement, primarily used in parts of the Netherlands and Belgium, to describe someone who is perceived as arrogant, boastful, and acting with undeserved confidence, often due to a perceived privileged background or wealth. The term carries connotations of social superiority and condescension towards those considered less fortunate. It can also imply a lack of genuine talent or merit, with the individual's success attributed to their connections or upbringing rather than their own abilities. The term is often used informally and can be considered offensive. The precise nuance and intensity of the insult can vary depending on the context and the speaker's intention.
