Skommel 'verb' (pronounced Skoh-mil)
Originally used in the Dutch language to describe a shaking or rocking motion, the term skommel is commonly used as a slang term in South African Afrikaans to describe
masturbation in a rudimentary manner.
It is a term used so frequently that it has nearly completely ousted the literal meaning of
the original Dutch word from everyday language.
Joe: Tony, why do you always run away from
your dog once you've
finished washing him?
Tony: All that dog needs is a
little bit of lube and he'll start to skommel.
