Fistic

from Word of the Day · host Word of the Day

Fistic is an adjective that means pugilistic or related to boxing. The English word fist came from Old English and came to exist simply by turning a noun into an adjective with the addition of the suffix I-C. The word is often used sarcastically and playfully. As a kid, my fistic skills weren’t very intimidating. That’s why I never considered boxing as a career path.
