Origin

Middle English: from Old English ācēocian (verb), from cēoce (see cheek).

chock from Middle English:
A chock, as in ‘chocks away!’, is a wedge or block placed against a wheel to prevent it from moving or to support it. It is probably from Old French çouche or çoche, meaning ‘block or log’. Chock-a-block (mid 19th century), ‘crammed full’, was originally a nautical expression which referred to a pair of pulley blocks with ropes threaded between to form a hoist or tackle—when they have been pulled so close together that the two blocks touch, further lifting is impossible. The expression was probably influenced by chock-full, a much older term meaning ‘filled to overflowing’. Where this comes from is uncertain, though ‘chock’ here may have been a form of choke (ME from Old English ceoce ‘jaw), from the idea of being so full that you are almost choking.
