A person who is deemed to be despicable or contemptible noun

A silly, incompetent, stupid, annoying or childish person (usually a man).

Total and utter tosser who is incapable of doing anything other than annoying people, and not in a way that is funny to others. Best used idly. e.g. "Git." Urban Dictionary

By definition it's a "rotter" or a despicable person. In reality in English it's a colloquialism that affords itself to a more a luckier fellow. Much like a 'bugger' whilst the roots of the word are offensive, the actual use is endearing. A lucky 'git', a wealthy 'git' and a sodding 'git'... when used right is still a mate. A friend. It's more positive these days. The origins are from the word 'geat' which were a Scandinavian people living in Götaland, land of the Geats, currently within the borders of modern Sweden. The name of the Geats lives on in the Swedish counties of Västergötland and Östergötland, the Western and Eastern lands of the Geats, as well as in many toponyms. Urban Dictionary

Idiot Urban Dictionary

A person that is useless, troublesome or annoying, a fool. From the english dialect "Git" or "Get" meaning "Gate". When using foundry sand to cast iron objects the access point for the metal, that is the funnel shape that lets the molten iron into the sand-mould was called the gate. This gate was of no use and would have to be removed from the final item and the item carefully finished to remove any blemishes caused by the gate. Thus the term "Useless gate (git)" was coined. Urban Dictionary

Means idiot or rotter. Often used affectionately like bugger (noun), but when used seriously is probably more potent (but less rude) than the worst swear words. Possibly derived from 17th century English 'get' meaning bastard. Urban Dictionary

An expression used in the Southeastern United States meaning 'Get along!'. Urban Dictionary
