Etymology 1Edit

From Dutch fok, from Middle Dutch focke, further origin unclear.[1] Possibly from the verb vocken (“to blow”), itself of uncertain origin, perhaps related to Faroese fokka (“jib”), though this could have been a reverse borrowing. Both of these could be from Proto-Germanic *fuk(k)ōn- (“to blow”), from Proto-Indo-European *pug-néh₂-.[2]

NounEdit

fok (plural fokke, diminutive fokkie)

  1. (nautical) A foresail

Etymology 2Edit

From Dutch fokken, from Middle Dutch focken, vocken, from Old Dutch *fokken, possibly of Scandinavian/North Germanic origin (compare Norwegian fukka, Swedish fokka), ultimately from Proto-Germanic *fukkōną.[3] Likely related to German ficken. The pejorative senses and usage developed primarily under influence of English fuck.[4]
