Word origin

Shortening of bonny clabber, from Irish bainne clábar (“mud, thick milk for churning”) or a Scots Gaelic cognate thereof; the latter is probably related to láib (“dirt, mud, filth”).

Used in a sentence

  • Even butter had proved beyond her means, for the milk she had tried to churn had never firmed up beyond the consistency of runny clabber.
  • They always had more milk than they needed and often entire buckets would clabber and one of her brothers would carry it out to the bunkhouse for the vaqueros.
