(verb, transitive) to move something slightly. From the Japanese adjective sukoshi = a small amount, a bit, slightly.
(I first heard it used as a verb in 2000 by an American native-English speaker who hadn't studied Japanese, but had just hung around with Japanese exchange students in the US.)
"Skosh that over just a bit."
"The frame on the wall was crooked so I skoshed it."

A small amount of something, usually edible.
At first 'twas but a skosh of cheese
At then, the world was a simple domain. With an unknown desire for what was yet to be.
For there was yet a Jeff who would show us the light.

O cheese what a qorval delight.

Jeff exhibited his passion, but few felt the same way

Not all would listen
To the wisdom Jeff eswayed
So, made he a plethora of cheesy essence

A different type of cheese for each quintessence
Out to the world, Jeff called
"Tastes and textures to suit you all!"
From but one type of cheese, thousands arose
More and more
Loved the cheese that Jeff chose
