juggling

Juggling is a physical skill, performed by a juggler, involving the manipulation of objects for recreation, entertainment, art, or sport. The most recognizable form of juggling is toss juggling. Juggling can be the manipulation of one object or many objects at the same time, using one or many hands. Jugglers often refer to the objects they juggle as ''props''. The most common props are balls, clubs, or rings. Some jugglers use more dramatic objects such as knives, fire torches or chainsaws. The term ''juggling'' can also commonly refer to other prop-based manipulation skills, such as diabolo, devil sticks, poi, cigar boxes, contact juggling, hooping, and hat manipulation.
==Etymology==
The words ''juggling'' and ''juggler'', derive from the Middle English ''jogelen'' ("to entertain by performing tricks"), which in turn is from the Old French ''jangler''. There is also the Late Latin form ''joculare'' of Latin ''joculari'', meaning "to jest".〔Oxford English Dictionary, Second Edition, 1989: ''juggling'' entry.〕 Although the etymology of the terms ''juggler'' and ''juggling'' in the sense of manipulating objects for entertainment originates as far back as the 11th century, the current sense of ''to juggle'', meaning "to continually toss objects in the air and catch them", only originates from the late 19th century.〔
Some writers have called the terms ''juggling'' and ''juggler'' a lexicographical nightmare,〔Butterworth, Philip (2005). ''Magic on the Early English Stage'', p.3. ISBN 9780521825139.〕 and following the current dictionary definitions have stated "In the twenty-first century the term ''juggler'' is applied to that kind of entertainer who throws up objects from one hand to another in a continuous rhythmical sequence without dropping them to the floor."〔 This terminological usage is limited as it only applies to toss juggling.〔"(Juggle )", ''OxfordDictionaries.com''.〕〔"(Juggle )", ''Merriam-Webster.com''.〕〔(1983). ''American Heritage Dictionary''. Cited in Ernest (2011), p.1.
According to James Ernest, in his book ''Contact Juggling'',〔Ernest, James (2011). ''Contact Juggling'', p.1. ISBN 9781591000273.〕 "If you ask most people what juggling is, they will tell you...that it means throwing and catching things"; however, it may actually include performing
In other words, "The art of tossing and catching or manipulating objects, keeping them in constant motion."〔Crego, Robert (2003). ''Sports and Games of the 18th and 19th Centuries'', p.16. ISBN 9780313316104.〕
