Definition of 'Turkey-trot'
From: GCIDE
- Turkey-trot \Tur"key-trot`\, n. An eccentric ragtime dance, danced with the feet well apart and with a characteristic rise on the ball of the foot, followed by a drop upon the heel. The original form, owing to the positions assumed by the dancers, is offensively suggestive. Similar dances are the
- bunny hug and
- grizzly bear, so called in allusion to the movements and the positions assumed by the partners in dancing. [Webster 1913 Suppl.]
