fugazi means fake, unauthentic, an immitation, etc.
sorry to keep off topic, but acronym finder showed me this
FUGAZI Fouled Up, Got Ambushed, Zipped In (British military slang)
this is an english term, or asian?
whoops, learned something today:
"Fugazi is a word that was used by Americans in Vietnam, and is slang
concerning those who died in ambush (something like that), so the acronmym
is ****ed Up, Got Ambushed, Zipped In."
and further "Fugazi is definately _not_ a vietnamese word as there is no Z in the
vietnamese alphabet."
skule is cool
heres another site that agrees:
"WHAT EXACTLY DOES FUGAZI STAND FOR, I KNOW ITS A ACRONYM BUT WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
I found it in a book called NAM, which is a book of recollections of Vietnam veterans, it was a slang word meaning f*ucked up situation, according to their glossary. Later I found out it was actually an acronym meaning "F*ucked Up, Got Ambushed, Zipped In."
