A word used along with a gesture to show how something is done.
My dad Ray used to use this word the whole time we were growing up to show EXACTLY what he meant. (He'd draw pretty good pictures, too.)

A word used by morons who think they are amazing at the English language not realising that the word "thus" would suffice in the context they are referring to.
