joukjookv.²

Brit.

/dʒuːk/, U.S.

/dʒuk/, Scottish English

/dʒuk/

Forms: 1500s iouk, iouck, iuke, iowk, 1600s, 1800s jowk, 1700s juck, jeuk, 1700s–1800s jook, 1800s juik. 1600s– jouk.

Etymology: A Scottish word of uncertain origin. It has been compared with duck v. 2, 4 of this; and it is noteworthy that the noun duck is in many parts of Scotland jook or jouk ; but this seems an inadequate explanation, since the noun is in other parts /dʏk/ or /døk/, and the verb to duck (in water) is generally /duk/: see duck v. The forms coincide to some extent with those of jouk v.¹ (which is not Scots), but the sense seems to be essentially distinct, coinciding to some extent with that of jink v.¹

Scottish and northern.

a. intransitive. To bend or turn the body with a quick adroit movement downward or to one side, in order to avoid a missile or blow; to dodge; to duck.

This entry has not yet been fully updated (first published 1901; most recently modified version published online December 2021). joukjookv.² Brit. /dʒuːk/, U.S. /dʒuk/, Scottish English /dʒuk/ Forms: 1500s iouk, iouck, iuke, iowk, 1600s, 1800s jowk, 1700s juck, jeuk, 1700s–1800s jook, 1800s juik. 1600s– jouk. Etymology: A Scottish word of uncertain origin. It has been compared with duck v. 2, 4 of this; and it is noteworthy that the noun duck is in many parts of Scotland jook or jouk ; but this seems an inadequate explanation, since the noun is in other parts /dʏk/ or /døk/, and the verb to duck (in water) is generally /duk/: see duck v. The forms coincide to some extent with those of jouk v.¹ (which is not Scots), but the sense seems to be essentially distinct, coinciding to some extent with that of jink v.¹ Scottish and northern. 1. a. intransitive. To bend or turn the body with a quick adroit movement downward or to one side, in order to avoid a missile or blow; to dodge; to duck.
