prang - v., (Brit) to crash into, collide with, bump into; to damage or destroy by colliding with or (aircraft) shooting down.


British slang from the 1930s, of imitative origin. There are other meanings, such as a type of spire and a slang term for cocaine, but those are not as interesting this morning.
