Both flap and thrash - I think they are the same. Rich Farmbrough

Thrash has always held a stronger connotation for me. You can thrash someone, shaking them around violently. But you would never flap someone.--Ioshus (talk) 16:51, 8 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

RFV discussion[edit]

The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process.

Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.
Do not re-add this information to the article without also submitting proof that it meets Wiktionary's criteria for inclusion.


Adjective: waving about; flailing. I doubt that this is an adjective rather than attributive use of the -ing form. See Wiktionary:English adjectives. DCDuring TALK 17:55, 20 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
