Editing Flatulence (section)

==Terminology==
Non-medical definitions of the term include "the uncomfortable condition of having gas in the stomach and bowels", or "a state of excessive gas in the alimentary canal". These definitions highlight that many people consider "bloating", [[abdominal distension]] or increased volume of intestinal gas, to be synonymous with the term flatulence (although this is technically inaccurate).

Colloquially, flatulence may be referred to as "farting", "pumping", "trumping",<ref>{{cite web |url=https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/trump |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170623075303/https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/trump |url-status=dead |archive-date=June 23, 2017 |title=trump |work=Oxford English Dictionary}}</ref> "blowing off", "pooting", "passing gas", "breaking wind", "backfiring", "tooting", "beefing", or simply (in [[American English]]) "gas" or ([[British English]]) "wind". Derived terms include [[vaginal flatulence]], otherwise known as a ''queef''. In [[rhyming slang]], [[blowing a raspberry]] (at someone) means imitating with the mouth the sound of a fart, in real or feigned derision.
