Surface Forms

pinch a loaf infinitive

Morphology

pinch + a + loaf

The slang meaning 'to defecate' cannot be predicted from the literal constituents: 'pinch' (to squeeze), 'a' (article) and 'loaf' (a shaped bread) give no transparent clue to bowel movement. This is a euphemistic, culture-specific metaphorical idiom that requires prior exposure rather than compositional inference, so a B1 learner who only knows the constituent words would not reliably infer the meaning.

Etymology

Pinch a loaf: The slang phrase pinch a loaf comes from a simple, literal image: pinch means to squeeze and loaf likens the shape of poop to a small loaf of bread. So the phrase came to mean 'to poop'.
