Flunk or Fail
Hello, let's say a teacher has it in for some student right? There's this action he can do in which he gives them a lower score than what they really got, what's that verb? I think it's like "He flunked/failed them" , is that correct?
Top answer
flunk is just rather old-fashioned slang for fail. Neither word suggests that the teacher did it unfairly. For that meaning, I'd say eg He failed the student out of spite.
