Word question
by A Non-Existent User
Hello,
I have been using the word "nocked" as in fitting an arrow to a bow, in a lot of my work, and I still get a lot of readers saying this is not a word. However, I have seen that it is used a lot by different writers, and it is listed on dictionary.com as a word. So the question is,
Should I use this word, or something different?????????
