CHACK
16
Definition
Pronunciation: //t͡ʃæk//
verb
- (ice-skating, transitive) To not broadcast a medal-winning or otherwise memorable or crucial figure skating performance. This only occurs in a live broadcast because the network has to decide which programs to show and which to cut in the interest of time. If a skater is low in the rankings and several big names are set to skate later, that performance may be cut."Michael Chack pulled WAY up in the standings in his long [skate event]...but was chacked while we saw five guys skate worse!!"
verb
- (intransitive) Of birds: to make a sudden harsh call."Fieldfares which chacked as they rose from berried hedgerows and isolated thorns were in their winter quarters; they had yet to face a long sea crossing to nest."
