anorak
The term exists in two distinct registers. In its literal sense, it describes a specific type of functional outerwear, often associated with Arctic climates or outdoor activities. It is a neutral, descriptive term for a garment.
In British English, the word is frequently used as a slang term for a person with an obsessive, niche hobby. This usage carries a mildly derogatory or mocking connotation, suggesting that the person's passion is socially awkward or overly pedantic. It evokes the image of a dedicated enthusiast who wears a practical, unstylish jacket while spending hours in the rain documenting technical details.
