This all depends on how you use it and for what reason. In the Black Country we say things that are unfathomable to anyone else. If I said 'Yam am saft.' That would mean you are a stupid person. It is difficult to encounter various dialects and interpret them from their original roots. It is most certainly of Scottish origin and appertains to a dust forming a cloud or deposited in a mass. This is a brewery term, English derivative is Stout. a form a thick beer. Hence we have stout. meaning thick or heavily built. If you could expand the question as to what term you use it in I will assist further and give a good definition.

Yours. Paul.
