'frolic' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'albanese or flip' is the wordplay.
'albanese' becomes 'pm' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'flip' says the letters should be written backwards (the order is flipped over).
'pm'+'or'='pmor'
'pmor' backwards is 'ROMP'.

'like' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
