"'''Bagarap'''" (from "buggered up") is a common word in Pacific pidgins such as [[Tok Pisin]] of [[Papua New Guinea]], [[Brokan]] (Torres Strait Creole) of Australia and Papua and others, meaning "broken", "hurt", "ruined", "destroyed", "tired", and so on, as in Tok Pisin "kanu i bagarap", Brokan "kenu i bagarap", "the canoe is broken" or Tok Pisin/Brokan "kaikai i bagarap", "the food is spoiled". Tok Pisin "mi bagarap pinis" ("me bugger-up finish") means, "I am very tired", or "I am very ill", while the Brokan equivalent, "ai pinis bagarap", is more "I'm done in", "I'm finished/I've had it".<ref>[http://coombs.anu.edu.au/SpecialProj/PNG/MIHALIC/M71/LetterB/bagarap.htm Bagarap] in ''The Jacaranda dictionary and grammar of Melanesian pidgin'' by F.
