The Wednesday Word - akimbo

Today’s word is akimbo. It means the position of one’s body where a hand is on one’s hip with the elbow bend outwards. It is often used in the plural, where Betty’s arms were akimbo.

Here is my quote for it:

“It was a sight to behold, watching young Jimbo do the limbo with his arms akimbo.”
