From Aramaic שָׁקָא (šāqā, shin), ultimately from Akkadian 𒆸 (sâqu, to be narrow, skinny, or constricted), cognate to native Arabic ضَيِّق (ḍayyiq, narrow, pressed); compare Classical Syriac ܫܩܐ (šāqā, shin), Hebrew שׁוֹק (shok, shin). Connected back to the root س و ق (s-w-q) by the urging on of animals with one's legs when riding or by driving them forward by tapping at their legs.
