More about the word "hit":
earlier I asked if the word "hit" could be used as a substitute for "Stab". let me put it in a certain context: there was this english test at school, and one of the questions was "the victim got HIT in the stomach. right or wrong?" knowing that in the text i was supposed to get the answer from, the "victim" got stabbed with a pair of scissors. in that particular context, can you say the victim was "hit" in the stomach?

Hello, Bambiraptor - and welcome to English Forums. No, 'hit' does not really work for 'stabbed' in that situation if one is takng a vocabulary test.
