請問jiggery-pokery是什麼意思?
jigger和poker這兩個字我都查的到,可是就不知道jiggery-pokery是什麼意思。
我是從一個英國劇看到的(英文字幕),句子是:The art of jiggery-pokery。
直接在網路上搜尋jiggery-pokery有這個字,所以應該不是錯字。

They use found objects often from charity shops to create anything from window displays to performance art to posters for Don't Panic. Here are some of our Jiggery Pokery favourites . . .
