This is a dictionary definition, and Wikipedia is not a dictionary. I turned it into a soft redirect to Wiktionary, but the article creator reverted so I am bringing it here. The phrase "box on the ear" is not something about which an article can be written, I believe.

If anyone has sources on the topic (aside from a free online dictionary) they could use them in the article Corporal punishment. Fences&Windows 21:10, 24 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
