A '''glorkum''' is the name that NetHack gives to a glitched item which has an unknown [[Item#Item categories|category]].

The item name will be called "glorkum" followed by three integers (the object class, type, and charges/enchantment/special flags), which are useful for debugging purposes.

During normal gameplay NetHack will never generate such items, so the presence of a glorkum (or any mention of a glorkum in gameplay messages) indicates a software [[bug]].

In code, the name "glorkum" comes from the function [[Source:NetHack_3.6.1/src/objnam.c#xname_flags|xname()]].

:You drop a glorkum 1 0 0.
