Wednesday's (March 27) Word

Today's word is:

keel-haul, verb
Pronounced: keel-hall

Definition: 1. (historically) to drag a person under the keel of a ship and up on the other side as a punishment. 2. to scold or rebuke severely

All right, Mateys, what say you try this word on for size!


Last week's word was jaunty.
Used in a sentence:
"The puppy's floppy ears, too-big paws and jaunty carriage made me instantly fall in love with him when I saw him at the pound."
