One of the lines in a story I am writing requires me to say "Nocked an arrow", but I am not sure if that is spelled right, and word dosn't give me a good selection of words to choose. If you have the correct spelling for 'Nocking an arrow', or you have a different way to say it, then post here please.
Thanks.
nock
n.
The groove at either end of a bow for holding the bowstring.
The notch in the end of an arrow that fits on the bowstring.
tr.v. nocked, nock·ing, nocks
To put a nock in (a bow or arrow).
To fit (an arrow) to a bowstring.
May I suggest m-w.com -- it's not the best dictionary in the world, but it's online, free, and easy to use. It's in my favorites for those times when I'm not quite sure on spelling...
Thanks, I will try m-w.com Thanks for the definition fishin'.
