Etymology

The term 'lammed' originated from the verb 'lam', which has its roots in the mid-19th century and is believed to be derived from the dialectal English term 'lam', meaning to strike or to hit. This usage likely stems from various regional expressions, where 'lam' referred to hitting something forcefully. The slang application developed over time, often associated with street or urban language, and has increased in popularity in contemporary vernacular, particularly among younger speakers. Although initially more localized, the term has permeated broader usage, indicating both physical confrontation and more figurative senses of being overwhelmed or harshly criticized.
