The use of "upend"

Hi

Could you please tell me how frequent the use of "upend" is on your side of the pond?

Would you cringe if you heard this word in everyday conversation?

Thanks,

Tom

I wouldn't cringe at all. I wouldn't say it's very common, but when you need to talk about something getting tipped over, it's as good a word as any.
