Morphology

shart + incident

The phrase 'shart incident' is directly composed from 'shart' (an accidental defecation while trying to fart) plus 'incident' (an occurrence), so a learner who knows both constituents can infer it denotes an occurrence involving a shart. It follows a common noun-modifier compounding pattern in English and is therefore morphologically transparent, though the term is informal/slang which affects register rather than compositionality.

Etymology

Shart incident comes from the word shart, a mix of 'fart' and 'poop'. It refers to when someone tries to 'fart' but accidentally passes 'poop', creating a messy, embarrassing moment, so the phrase now means a funny but shameful accident.
