There's also a gymnastics use of "kip" -- a kind of flip from a hang to a support position ( www.gymnasticsrevolution.com).

I didn't see it in that reference Verb....but this article has it, with pictures. We are learning things here. I have watched bar work sometimes and never given a thought to what the moves were called. Gymnastic Kip

This whole thread looks weird to me as kip in our language means
chicken. So, 'I'm taking a kip' and 'gymnastic kip' looks quite funny to me.
You take a kip and rub it with pepper and sea salt.

Marker pens are often employed on young or old by young or old when the one is taking a kip...they wake up with drawn on glasses and moustaches...they don't realise for a while...is quite funny...

When in boarding school, we marked other parts of the anatomy, or left messages and we did it for years - and were never caught.

I admire the sleeper who would not get wide awake by this foul act.

this foul act But if a kip is a chicken, wouldn't it have been a fowl act?

I admire the sleeper who would not get wide awake by this foul act. Kids who were kept going all day long with scarce a break were dead tired at night. Especially the younger ones. They were "dead to the world" when they finally fell asleep.
