Bill W 44,393 Posted November 4, 2023 Hanker or hankering or old time or old west sayings. My grandfather used to use the term a lot. He had a hankering for this or that, such as a "hankerin' to go watch some wraslin' at the Masonic Temple," where they occasionally held professional wrestling matches. 4 Link to comment
