Eye dialect for faggot (I assume gay person and not piece of wood etc.?). Seems too rare even for us to have a "misspelling" entry. Most or all GBooks hits are scannos for "fagged" meaning "tired, exhausted". Equinox 19:19, 10 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

Whatever it is, it isn't eye dialect. —Mahāgaja (formerly Angr) · talk 19:36, 10 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
Cited. I changed the definition to say it’s a pronunciation spelling, but I’m not sure it’s much of an improvement. Anyway, it’s a clear case of intentional misspelling. Some Usenet hits only misspell this word, which could indicate that it was used to avoid a wordfilter, but the citations I’ve added for this sense all use mangled spelling throughout. — Ungoliant (falai) 20:06, 10 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
