单词 pouk
释义

poukn.

Brit. /puːk/, U.S. /puk/
Forms: 1600s pouge, 1600s pouke, 1600s powke, 1600s (1900s– Welsh English) powk, 1700s–1800s pouk; English regional (northern and west midlands) 1800s pahke, 1800s– paak, 1800s– peauk, 1800s– peawk, 1800s– pike, 1800s– poke, 1800s– pouk, 1800s– puck, 1800s– puke, 1900s– pairk, 1900s– park, 1900s– pewk, 1900s– powk, 1900s– puuk. N.E.D. (1907) also records a form pook (regional).
Origin: Apparently a variant or alteration of another lexical item. Etymon: pock n.1
Etymology: Apparently related to pock n.1; it is possible that, in spite of the very late date of first attestation, the word may show the reflex of an ablaut variant of the same Germanic base (compare pough n., and forms and discussion at that entry). Surv. Eng. Dial. records the word in sense ‘stye’ from Lancashire, Yorkshire, Cheshire, Derbyshire, Shropshire, Hertfordshire, and Worcestershire, and occasionally in sense ‘pimple’ from Westmorland and Cheshire.
English regional (west midlands and northern) in later use.
A small blister, boil, or pustule; a stye on the eyelid.
