Square is slang for a person who is conventional and old-fashioned, similar to a Fuddy-duddy. This sense of the word "square" originated with the American jazz community in the 1940s, in reference to people out of touch with musical trends. Older senses of the term square referring positively to someone or something honest and upstanding date back to the 16th century.

  • Square (čtverec) je anglický slang, který používáme, když chceme mluvit o osobě, která je považována za nudnou, pevně konvenční a nedotčenou současnými trendy. Původně slovo označovalo osobu, která byla upřímná, spravedlivá a věrná. Při vzestupu jazzové hudby se termín změnil z komplimentu na urážku. (cs)
