Rfv-sense "to be hit by the vegetable". Citation is a pun, joke entry? – Jberkel 12:14, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
- Shouldn't it be reworded in the active voice: "To hit someone with a squash (or other vegetable???)" Otherwise, we could delete it because we won't find much attestation for the passive wording.
- As this is a trivial kind of conversion of a noun definition to a verb definition, I wouldn't lift a finger to verify it. DCDuring (talk) 12:22, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
- I'm pumpkinned. – Jberkel 05:14, 13 June 2018 (UTC)

I have not found any attestations of term being used with the sense "a hangover", see for example a Google books search for "squash alcohol". The only evidence that I found for the sense was on Urban Dictionary, with most votes on the sense being negative. —The Editor's Apprentice (talk) 16:18, 9 April 2020 (UTC)

Czech[edit]
User:Solvyn Normally you would use m.soft, but that converts the h's to z's in the dative and locative. Let me see if I can fix that. Benwing2 (talk) 02:55, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you! Moreover, this instance of squash appears to be the singular occurrence in Czech. Solvyn (talk) 03:22, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
