Rfv-sense: sigh. Not in OED. If kept, Swedish word should possibly be changed to stånka Zumbacool (talk) 22:09, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
- It's in the EDD (
{{R:EDD|stank|v.4 and sb.4|730|noformat=1}}) with a couple example sentences, but I'm not sure if those are taken from published works. If you look up "stanked" on Google Books, you can find some hits related to cows, and EDD also has examples related to cows. The EDD explains that the term is used for cows sighing in pain, but it seems like "stank" is being used differently in the cattle-related quotations I found. Not clear if it can be cited outside of that particular context, but it would be good if possible. 98.170.164.88 04:06, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
