NounTransitive VerbIntransitive Verb
pl: swillspast: swilledpp: swilleding: swilling

The noun form carries a strong connotation of waste and filth, specifically evoking the image of agricultural scraps. It is used almost exclusively in the context of livestock feeding, particularly for pigs, and suggests a lack of quality or refinement.

As a verb, the word shifts between a neutral mechanical action and a judgmental description of consumption. When describing rinsing, it implies a swirling motion. When describing drinking, it suggests a lack of decorum, often implying gluttony or intoxication, making it far more critical than words like sip or drink.
