prang
A "prang" is a term used primarily in British English to describe a minor collision or accident, especially involving vehicles. It often refers to situations where there is little damage or injury, making it less serious than a major crash. The word can also imply a light-hearted or humorous context when discussing such incidents.
In aviation, "prang" can refer to an aircraft accident, particularly one that is not catastrophic. The term is sometimes used informally among pilots and aviation enthusiasts to describe mishaps that occur during flight operations, such as a hard landing or a minor runway excursion.
