Not English.

The word is German and means 'above'.


But the meaning is to be found on the other side of the pond over in the US of jolly old A. It is used for something 'above' the standard.

Ten-gallon hats, and other such exercises in the imagination.


The celebrated English stiffness of the upper-lip would never countenance such ... or would it?
