Definition

Frak is an expletive analogous to the English word fuck.

Usage

It is used much like its English counterpart, i.e. "Frakkin' rats."/"Fuckin' rats."

It is a multipurpose and adaptable term, for it is capable of being used as a term describing the act of sex (ex: Tyrol just frakked Sharon!) or can be used to denote one's hatred of something (ex: Frakkin' Cylons).

In the original series, it was spelled "frack".

The meaning and usage is similar to the military slang term "frag" (also "fragged" etc. - supposedly originating in the Vietnam War Era) which referrs to a fragmentation grenade or similar weapon.
