I’m not entirely sure I read your comment correctly, but it sounds like you’ve never heard the word “whinging” before.
For the avoidance of doubt, it’s a real word. It rhymes with “hinging”.
Comment on Is thinly-veiled political whinging really a question just because you used a question mark?

Whinging eh? I read that similar to whinching or winging though I know you mean whining. If we’re tossing in question marks?

And in the UK at least it’s a distinct word and meaning from whining. In the US I think we just use “whining” for both meanings.

Whinge is a perfectly reasonable word

Shhh, you’ll confuse the Americans who have never bothered to understand the culture of one of their most ideologically similar allies who literally speak the same language.
