Forms: 1800s lochrum, 1800s lockram, 1800s lockrem, 1800s– lockrum, 1800s– logaram, 1800s lockum.

Origin: Probably a variant or alteration of another lexical item. Etymon: lockram n.¹

Etymology: Probably a figurative use of lockram n.¹ (compare bombast n. 3 and fustian n. 2).The form in quot. 1809 is a phonetic spelling using the author's own notation system. Eng. Dial. Dict. (1905) at logaram interprets this form as an alteration of logarithm n., ‘in the sense of something unintelligible’.

English regional (midlands) and North American. Now rare.

A lot of nonsense; a nonsensical tale. Also occasionally in plural in same sense.
