''Chicken shit'', or more commonly ''chickenshit'', is a slang term, usually regarded as vulgar. The online Merriam-Webster dictionary defines ''chickenshit'' (one word) as a vulgar adjective with two possible meanings: "petty, insignificant" or "lacking courage, manliness, or effectiveness".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=chickenshit )〕 ==Coward== The term has been used figuratively since 1929 to allege cowardice. It can be used as either a noun or an adjective; it is always an insult. In October 2014, an unnamed senior official in the Obama administration was reported to have called Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu a "chickenshit", adding that he "has got no guts". Secretary of State John Kerry apologized to the prime minister, while Israeli media scrambled to understand or translate the idiom.
