Apple-Knocker: Definition and Insights

The document is a short story where different characters give their definitions for the term "Apple-Knocker" which is then revealed to have the actual informal definition of an ignorant or unsophisticated person. None of the character's guesses were correct, with their interpretations ranging from a health nut, to a factory machine, to a Transylvanian-style door knocker featuring an apple and hand.

Apple-Knocker

By: Savannah Harraway

Anduryn Gallimore: A health nut.

Erick Dominguez: Someone getting hit down there.

Precious Brown: A machine in a factory.

Mrs. Godbey: A door knocker with a hand and an apple. Ive seen those before. They
are strange, like something youd expect to see in Transylvania. I want one!

The actual definition is (U.S. informal) an ignorant or unsophisticated person. No one


was correct for this one.
