knout [nout]
noun
1. a whip with a lash of leather thongs, formerly used in Russia for flogging criminals.
That's right, the word for today is a type of whip. Pretty kinky huh? Actually I think it only feels kinky because I just finished reading the 50 shades of Grey trilogy. Can't you see the characters from the book in this picture.
"Hold on Miss. Steele, this one's gonna sting."
Ooh la la. And if you don't know what I'm talking about, then come out of the hole you've been living in and join the world of bondage erotica. :)
Tomorrow's word is the letter L and it's 10 letters, starts with LI. I promise you won't be whipped with a knout if you get it wrong. ;)
Another new word for me. Hooray! I'm trying to visit all the A-Z Challenge Blogs this month.

I had no idea it meant so many things... but then most words shift from their origin to other adaptations over time.
ReplyDeleteInteresting name for the whip, but the results are the same (pain). Thanks for stopping by my blog. Cairo must be an interesting place to live.
