Word of the day


Today's word is JAPED.

Japed [JAYP] verb

1: to say or do something jokingly or mockingly

2: to make mocking fun of

Example:
Her boyfriend japed the male dancer as the left the club, but she knew he only did it because he was jealous of the dancer's moves and rhythm.

Did you know?
"Jape" mysteriously appeared in the English language during the 14th century and was adopted by literary folks, such as Geoffrey Chaucer, as a word meaning both "to trick" and "to jeer." It was also used, however, with the meanings "to seduce (someone)" or "to have sexual intercourse." This ambiguity forced writers to think twice about using "jape" in fear of misinterpretation. Ultimately, the word was avoided by respectable writers, and by the end of the 16th century it had fallen into disuse. But this four-letter word was not completely forgotten. It got its second chance when 19th-century writers began using its "jeer" meaning again—leaving its carnal meaning in oblivion.

Interesting word and etymology, or lack there of. Practice kicked my ass and my inner thighs are screaming! Its a good thing though and means I'm working hard to get shit down and doing it and skating better. Hope y'all had a fabulous tied up Tuesday
