Whip
A
whip is a tool traditionally used by humans to exert control over animals or other people, through
pain compliance or fear of pain, although in some activities whips can be used without use of pain, such as an additional pressure aid in
dressage. Whips are generally of two types, either a firm stick device designed to strike directly, or a flexible whip which must be swung in a specific manner to be effective, but has a longer reach. There are also whips which combine both a firm stick (the
stock or
handle) and a flexible line (the
lash or
thong), such as hunting whips.
