skul

Skul is a term that can refer to several different concepts, most commonly a unit of measurement or a slang term. In historical contexts, particularly in Scotland, a skul was a unit of weight used for measuring grain. The exact weight of a skul could vary regionally and over time, but it was generally a substantial amount, often equivalent to several pounds. This unit was important for trade and agricultural records.

More recently, "skul" has emerged as slang, particularly in online communities and among younger generations. In this usage, "skul" is often a shortened or altered form of the word "skull," and it can be used humorously or to express a sense of completion or exhaustion. It might be employed in phrases like "my brain is skul" to mean that one is mentally drained, or as a shorthand for a skull emoji in digital communication. The precise meaning in its slang form can be context-dependent and subject to evolving usage.
