根据国外媒体近日报道，最近因为美国步枪协会(NRA)的一个视频导致”fisk”这个单词在Dictionary.com的搜索量剧增。在这段NRA视频中，NRA发言人Dana Loesch在视频中对着镜头说道：“我们将要fisk《纽约时报》，”并且在最后总结成：“简而言之，我们要来找你了。”

 

由于在这段NRA视频的文字部分，NRA打出了一个#ClenchedFistofTruth的标签，于是很多网友将视频中的fisk误听成fist，这让他们以为Dana Loesch所说的跟性行为有关。

 

 

但是很显然，大家对fisk这个单词并不熟悉，于是美国人民纷纷求助Dictionary.com网站，这也就是导致该单词在上面搜索量突然增加的原因。

在Dictionary.com的解释中，

第一个内容指的是历史人物James Fisk：詹姆斯，1834-72年，美国金融家和股票投机者；

 

第二个意思是（美国俚语）逐条反驳（一篇文章或博客）批评。看起来NRA发言人Dana Loesch所说的就是第二个意思，也就是我们将要逐条反驳《纽约时报》。

而金山词霸上的解释是：

 

Fisk

 

英 [fɪsk]   美 [fɪsk]

n.

国库，罗马皇帝王室财库

 

Someone should fist Dana Loesch.

 

Oh sorry! I meant “Fisk”.

Dana just tweeted at me saying she said “FISK” not Fist” – but I have to note the NRA tweet included #ClenchedFistOfTruth as a hashtag. https://t.co/DDJw2ydlZS

Saddest part is she apparently said “fisk”. Not as much fun.

NRA: “These elitist intellectuals are trying to take our guns.”

 

NRA: “GAWD, you don’t know the verb “fisk”? Do you even flashcard, bro?”
