Skosh

Sam and Dad talked for a while about the word “skosh” as Sam was getting into bed. Sam said his Science teacher told them that the proper procedure for focusing the microscope lens was “turn it all the way to the left, and then a skosh to the right”. Dad had to convince Sam that skosh was a real word. And then they had to look it up on Google to see how to spell it. Sam asked Dad what term he had searched for, and it was “move over a scoche.”
