Word of the Day #2



fisk

\Fisk\, v. i. [Cf. Sw. fjeska to bustle about.] To run about; to frisk; to whisk. [Obs.]

He fisks abroad, and stirreth up erroneous opinions. --Latimer.


(There also seems to be some new definition that "fisking" is to disect someone's work in an editorial manner, after the anti-American columnist Fisk.)
