**foon**: foon (f-oonh) 1. n. the proper defenition of foon (NOT AT ALL in fact having to do with anything sexually vulgar or "[sporkish]") comes from the description of a fast and therefore [aerodynamic] animal. The word was probably fashioned after fast and typhoon or perhaps simply fuzzy. The word itself was invented in 1989 by two biracial linguists. A foon will have its ears laid back, flattened to its head while running or swimming and while in momentum is often seen waving head to toe in an undulating fashion. 2. v. foon can also be used as a verb to describe the action of the noun eg. [The otter] fooned through the water.; The otter is [fooning] through the water playfully. 3. A third usage of the word foon is when one would impose upon an animal or person into the appearance of being aerodynamic by [laying back] the ears or head manually or by force. eg. Four year old Shelia patted the head of her cat with such enthusiasm that she forced its ears back {fooned its ears back} and the cat remained fooning with annoyance as it [swished] its tail back and forth. (Can be used in present tense as well.)
*An [otter] can foon through the water, a grey hound is [fooning] across the track, a seal fooned through the water, Sheila fooned her cat, and the [Chinese dragon] is a majestic foon in the air.*
