Hello everyone,

Is the adjective "kaput" commonly used in everyday language? Is it okay if I us it as follows? Or is it understood by natives?

Eg a. The air conditioner is kaput.

Eg b. The car is kaput.

Eg c. The mobile is kaput.

Regards,

JA

I would say that it is relatively uncommon but pretty widely understood nevertheless. It is an informal word. All your examples are OK.
