Canadian Word of the Day: Gitch/GinchPrimarily heard in Western Canada, 'gitch,' 'ginch,' or 'gotchies' are slang for underwear. This quirky term is thought to have Ukrainian roots, derived from the word 'gatky' (าะฐัะบะธ), which means pants or briefs. Its adoption into prairie slang is a direct result of the linguistic influence of Ukrainian immigration on regional Canadian English. #Canada #CanadianSlang #WordOfTheDay #Prairies
