    A lash is one of the short hairs that grow on your — most people say 'eyelashes' for the ones on your eyes. Lash is also a verb: if you lash something, you tie it very tightly with rope, like sailors lash boxes to a ship so they don't fall. And if you lash something with a whip, you hit it hard and fast. There's a common phrase too: when someone 'lashes out', they suddenly get angry and say or do something , often because they are hurting inside.
