In that sense, it does carry a connotation of joy. But in real life, rackety just means it's either shoddily built, or built without regard for noisiness. Doesn't carry the same connotation of joy if it wakes you up every morning. | |

Thank you for your thoughts and explanations. Doesn't rackety possess a connotation of joy? I've always thought so.
