Why "Badgering"?
7 Answers
When referring to harrassing, tormenting etc., why is it known as "badgering" specifically. Obviously it is similar to the actual meaning of "dogging", if slightly more aggressive.
I found another definition which relates to buying wheat and selling it on elsewhere for profit - maybe there's a derivation from "bag" in some way.
Any bright ideas? Thanks.
