The word "drunkard" is defined as someone who drinks alcohol excessively and uncontrollably. It is usually used to describe someone who has a drinking problem and consumes alcohol on a regular basis. This person is often seen as a negative character, someone who is irresponsible and reckless when it comes to drinking. They can be a danger to themselves and those around them. Even though this is a negative connotation, many people who have a drinking problem can be helped and supported to overcome their addiction.
