divvers

Where it comes from

Jocular modification of divinity + -ers. See Oxford "-er".

noun

archaic, uncountable divinity (as a subject or examination). It is indeed no small hardship to give up fourteen successive evenings to an examination so farcical and extravagant as Divvers, which is void of definite purpose or result, when they might have been doing a thousand and one things of enjoyment and interest such as only a University can provide.
Similar: div
