Recently among young people you can often hear such a word as "revelry". Archaisms are gradually becoming part of the slang of the younger generation. So what is "bashing"?
History of the origin of the word
What is "buzz"? It turns out that our distant ancestors also loved and knew how to relax. Kutezh is a native Russian word, and it was used in Russia in the 18th and 19th centuries among the nobility. The Russian nobility often preferred noisy parties to high society receptions - after all, fun is not alien to any of us. Noisy, reckless drinking parties were called revelry. What is "buzz"? And to go on a spree, respectively, meant "walking", "resting in body and soul", "having fun".
From ordinary events, sprees were distinguished by the swagger of the guests' behavior, the abundance of alcohol, illegal substances and tavern girls at the "party". Often high-ranking ranks were inveterate revelers. As a rule, this was hidden from honest people.
The very word "revelry" comes from the word "kutia". Kutya in Russia was called rice porridge with raisins and nuts. Kutya todayserved at a wake, and in Russia it was considered a festive dish. "Kutya", respectively, means "to eat kutya", to celebrate. Unfortunately, kutya was reduced during the holidays and replaced by rivers of alcohol, but the word derived from it remained.
What does it mean to "go out"
As you probably already understand, "revelry" is a massive booze with a lot of alcohol and illegal substances. Most often, young people revel, who do not think about the consequences of such a party and mercilessly burn their parents' money. What is kut? "Screw everything" - means to skip all the money to the last penny. The term was in use in past centuries, but lately a fashion for archaisms has begun to spread among young people. Now it is very "fashionable" in an ironic context to call any drinking and festivities sprees, associating oneself with princes, emperors and other nobility. Today, it is finally possible to form an answer to the question of what it is to revel. To party means to relax, drink, have fun with girls, relax in a big company.
