What I remember of your kip yesterday is that you boldly made "kip" the singular of "kippers", while we all know that the singular of kippers is kipper and we let you get away with plain false play.

Oh, no no, playing false elegantly can be part of the game  , as long as it does not break the game. So let the games continue.

We enjoy 'our game' Bran and sometimes deviate to the silly side  Kip..in Australia, means 'taking a nap' or sleep. re Maw as relates to a voracious animal..but also Maul... the act of causing severe bodily injuries, often from an animal attack. I wonder if they are related. When a carnivorousness animal eats its prey..it often will start in the abdomen.

And after mauling the animal with its maw, it lays down
for a kip. (I don't think I could survive Aussi conversation).

Is the proper usage:
I am going to kip for a while.
I am going to kip out for a while.
Or
I am going to take a kip.

Obviously meaning it could be a noun or a verb.

It is a noun and a verb so I was wondering what the common form of usage is. The example is "DC kipped", but if you use it first person singular how would you say it.

(I'm) going for a kip
or 'ahh look - he's having a kip'
or to small tired (often grumpy as a result) child 'fancy a kip?'
