  • 17:2817:28, 18 September 2024 diff hist −273 Glossary of nautical terms (M–Z) Removed something of uncertain naval providence. Sources seem to be in disagreement; however, seeing as "cat o' nine tails" is first attested in the 1690's (https://www.etymonline.com/word/cat-o%27-nine-tails#etymonline_v_34265)and "no room to swing a cat" is attested from 1665 (https://quod.lib.umich.edu/e/eebo/A47273.0001.001?rgn=main;view=fulltext) it seems unreasonable to state it here confidently.
