The worthless word for the day is: quagswagging


[fr. quag, to quake + swag, to sway]

Obs. rare : the action of shaking to and fro

"Therefore John Calfe, her Cosen gervais once removed with a log from the woodstack, very seriously advised her not to put herself into the hazard of quagswagging in the lee, to be scoured with a buck of linen clothes till first she had kindled the paper."
- François Rabelais, The Life of Gargantua.. (tr. 1883)
