19. Whats the Good word ?
The word XY is used for a girl who is flashy inappearance. The word can be called part of slang, and
can be derogatory as well, though it's not a swear
word.
X here refers to the sound of jingling as someonewalks, and Y was most probably used for a ring, not
necessarily the one worn in a finger and hence XY was
used for someone who used to make a jingling sound
with her jewels.
