Two clues
The BBC's deadbeat droid is being coy about a racist slur used in a recent YouTube video; keeping the clues to a minimum.
From his selection of letters, KSI created a four-letter derogatory word for people of South Asian origin.
Four letters? South Asian? Are those the only clues we get? (thinking)
It can't be Chong
, that's five letters. Or Nips
, because nip(s)
has other meanings. Besides, neither China nor Japan are South Asian countries.
Pakistan is, though, so I guess it could be Paki
. But a little more assistance wouldn't go amiss here, droidy.
Several other outlets were a little more forthcoming, offering P***
. So, with the first letter as the third clue, we can be fairly confident the unword
was indeed Paki
. We got there in the end. (phew)
