Note
A regular form that does double duty. The same spelling covers the simple past (she disked the field) and the participle after have or be (the field had been disked twice). Most often it describes tillage, harrowing soil to break and level it. Aviation gives the verb a second life: propeller blades are disked when they are moved to zero pitch, turned face-on to the oncoming air so that they drag like a brake.
