The Meaning of clock

• (n.) A watch, esp. one that strikes.
• (n.) The striking of a clock.
• (n.) A figure or figured work on the ankle or side of a stocking.
• (v. t.) To ornament with figured work, as the side of a stocking.
• (v. t. & i.) To call, as a hen. See Cluck.
• (n.) A large beetle, esp. the European dung beetle (Scarabaeus stercorarius).
