4. dialect. Filthy, obscene language or writing.[Cf. 1849 and 1853 at sense 3.][From the evidence at present, the inference is that the current sense was transferred from 1 or 2, either with the notion of ‘frothy talk,’ or of ‘a senseless farrago’ or ‘jumble of words.’ Most etymologists have however assumed 3 to be the original sense, and sought its explanation in the obvious similarity of balder to dialect balder ‘to use coarse language,’ Dutch balderen ‘to roar, thunder,’ Norwegian baldra, Icelandic baldrast, ballrast ‘to make a clatter,’ and of -dash to the verb dash in various senses. The Welsh baldorddus adj., < baldordd ‘idle noisy talk, chatter,’ has also been adduced. Malone conjectured a reference to ‘the froth and foam made by barbers in dashing their balls backward and forward in hot water.’ Other conjectures may be found in Wedgwood, Skeat, and E. Müller. Cf. also balductum n. ]
