quad bike

== English == === Etymology === From quad (“four (“4”)”) +‎ bike (“bicycle”). From being a 4-wheeled quadricycle vehicle that is ridden astride like a dirt bike (“motorcycle”). The oxymoronic character of the term, via the etymonic-level contradiction of quad ("four") in juxtaposition with the bi- behind bike ("two"), is simply ignored by idiom, as such contradictions often are. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): (General American) /ˈkwɑd ˌbaɪk/, (Received Pronunciation) /ˈkwɒd ˌbaɪk/ === Noun === quad bike (plural quad bikes) A small off-road four-wheeled powered vehicle, especially of a design derived from a motorcycle, usually used for recreation or farm work. Synonyms: quad, four-wheeler Hypernyms: ATV, all-terrain vehicle < vehicle Coordinate terms: three-wheeler; dirtbike; UTV, SxS, side-by-side ==== Derived terms ==== ==== Translations ====
