bambosh

Humbug; deceptive nonsense.

Annie, a willing accomplice once Daisy had told her a tale of bambosh about wishing to approach Lady Sarah to seek employment for a friend, had also divulged that the dowager spent an hour every Thursday afternoon perusing the shelves at Lackington's Bookshop.

Silliness and revelry.

Some Creole observers have described the post-Duvalier period as diyari demokratik (democratic diarrhea) or bambosh demokrasi (revelry of democracy).

Yes, the bambosh dance is still danced until the dancers, wildly drunk on clairine vanish into the surrounding blackness to capture the partner of their choice.

To bamboozle; to deceive with nonsense.

Those who play and pay go to extraordinary lengths to be bamboshed.
