Definition of skank :.

(skăngk)

  1. 1. (n.) Junkword. Originally associated with a bad smell and/or scummy or dirty surface, it has come to refer to someone who is either or both physically repugnant for their filth and morally or socially repugnant for their behavior and demeanor, most often sexually.

    This definition has a striking resemblance to the American Heritage® definition of skank: "One who is digustingly foul or filthy and often considered sexually promiscuous. Used especially of a woman or girl."
