 * I am an Australian, and I can verify that it is used here. It isn't the most common word, but it is certainly used.User:Wally 09:40, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

I googled "dunny nard" "crapper nard" and "nard shit" and came up with nard. Rfvfailed. Andrew massyn 19:54, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Noun
Regardless of the controversy, am I not correct that this is a noun, not an adjective? I don't know how to change the template, etc.

Etymology 2
Alteration of "nuts"? I suspect alteration of "nads" (vulgar abbreviation of "gonads") is a more plausible etymology, but that's original research so I shan't do anything about it.

 * Your conjecture is plausible. Wiktionary has no restrictions on original research, though references are greatly appreciated. A weasel word like "possibly" can provide sufficient warning for users. A "see also nads" would be a useful, low-key way of letting a reader share your conjecture. Also, an error in etymology does not usually have serious real-world consequences. DCDuring TALK 02:03, 7 November 2013 (UTC)
