PUMMEL Meaning and Definition

1. Pummel is a transitive verb that refers to the act of repeatedly striking or beating someone or something with force and intensity, typically with closed fists or heavy blows. It entails a series of aggressive and forceful blows inflicted upon an object or an individual, often resulting in physical harm, injuries, or severe damage.

   When used in a physical sense, pummeling can convey a sense of violence, aggression, or a display of dominance. It typically involves a rapid succession of blows, making it distinct from a single punch or hit. The repetitive nature of pummeling implies an intent to overpower or subdue the recipient by unleashing a barrage of forceful strikes. The term is generally associated with hand-to-hand combat or violent altercations, but it can also be metaphorically employed to depict severe criticism, verbal assaults, or non-physical forms of attack.

   Furthermore, pummel can also be used to describe the act of working or kneading a substance vigorously. For instance, in cooking or baking, one may pummel dough or a mixture to ensure ingredients are evenly distributed, to remove air bubbles, or to achieve a desired consistency. In this context, pummel refers to the forceful manipulation or compression of the material, often done by repeatedly striking, pounding, or pressing it.

2. • See Pommel.

   • To beat; to beat roughly.

Etymology of PUMMEL

The word "pummel" originated from Middle English, derived from the Old English word "pommel" or "púmel" which meant "to beat". This Old English word was ultimately derived from the Latin word "pomellum" which referred to a small knob on a sword hilt or saddle. Over time, the meaning of "pommel" expanded to encompass the action of striking or beating someone or something with the fists or a blunt object. Eventually, "pummel" emerged as a variant spelling of "pommel" in the 16th century, and it has been used to represent the act of striking repeatedly or brutally ever since.
