When I was a teenager Websters defined fart as An explosion between the thighs. Times have changed. Just thought Id share an important part of my adolescent humor. LOL Definition of Fart. According to MedicineNet Fart: This is not an accepted medical word for passing gas. Excess gas in the intestinal is medically termed flatulence. (But what is excess gas is difficult to define since symptom-free individuals have recorded approximately 14 passages of gas per 24 hours!) The Oxford English Dictionary (OED), in its inimitable way, notes that the word fart is not in decent use. The OED defines the transitive verb form of fart: To send forth as wind from the anus 1632. The word comes from the Old English feortan (meaning to break wind). Although the word fart is not in decent use, it was used by the likes of the great English poet Geoffrey Chaucer.
