shauchle, v. Sc.|ˈʃɑx(ə)l|
Also 8 shochel, 9 shochle, shachle, (shackle), shaughle. See also shaffle v.
[Of obscure origin: cf. shail v.
The Eng. dial. words shuckle (Kent) to shuffle along, or slink along in walking, shockle to shuffle, to shake, joggle (see Eng. Dial. Dict.), and the G. schaukel a swing, schaukeln (= MDu. schockelen) to swing, rock, in spite of their similarity in form and meaning, appear to be unconnected with this word; they app. belong to the root of shock v.]
