Description:
See the attached article for the complete history of this work in Common. 'Trak' comes fomr the English 'drag' via international drag culture. In modern High Common, it is a modifier, describing something or someone as posessing a drag aesthetic or presentation.
The term form ' trakyn', generally only even used in a oun context, refers to either drag as an artfowm in general, or else specifically to a drag queen. The expressions 'ny trak kuín' or 'ny trakkuin' for a drag queen are mostly archaic in the early 22nd century, although I gather they are still current alongside 'ny trakyn' in some places.
