The word "forke" is often spelled as "fork" and refers to an object with two or more prongs used for lifting, holding, or eating food. Synonyms for forke include "prong," "tine," "pitchfork," "dinner fork," and "carving fork." A prong is a sharp and thin pointed fork-like object, while a tine is a prong with a rounder tip typically found on a gardening fork. A pitchfork often has longer, thicker prongs for farming or gardening activities, while a dinner fork is a smaller, more refined version for eating meals. A carving fork is specifically designed for holding meat while cutting it, often with longer prongs and a slightly curved shape.
