I am one simple word, but I mean different things
One of my meanings brings great forceful swings,
The other of me, may have curve, like the first...
But only one meaning can help quench a thirst.
help me!!!

Hmmm, I am thinking pitch or pitcher. Pitch is the throw that brings a swing, it can be the angle of inclinition of something, which can be curved. The last one is a bit of a stretch as pitch can mean to dunk something like a ladle, which will help you get a drink. Pitcher is obvious for the last part and first part, but it is difficult to make it something separate for the second.

aero_guy I think you've got the right word. I had originally gone for punch but it falls down on the second definition. A pitcher is a club in golf so that could definitely be the first - a golf swing is pretty forceful. The second is the curve of a baseball pitcher and the third is a pitcher of drink.

There you go, I was thinking of baseball for the first part which left me with the nine-iron definition (looked up from a dictionary) for the second which didn't make any sense. Reversing them does though.

What about wave . Not as good as the others, but still works reasonably well.
