skate
Flat winged fish
A skate is a boot with a blade or wheels attached for gliding across ice or pavement: ice skates, roller skates, inline skates.
To skate is to move on skates, or figuratively to glide through something with ease: He skated through the interview.
To skate on thin ice is to take dangerous risks.
Separately, a skate is a flat-bodied fish related to rays.
