amuck \ ə-ˈmək, ə-ˈmäk \ adv : in a murderously frenzied manner. This is a word that has to do with chaos and disorder. A riot is an example of people running amuck. In a cafeteria, if people are yelling and throwing food, they are going amuck. This word applies to times when control has been lost: people are showing no self-control, and the situation is out of hand.
