coken.¹

Brit.

/kəʊk/, U.S.

/koʊk/

Forms: Also 1600s–1800s coak, couk, 1700s coake, cowke.

Etymology: Known only from the 17th cent., when classed by Ray as a North-country word. Possibly the same as the northern colk n.¹ (also spelt coke) a core, coke being viewed as the hard core of the coal left after other parts have been consumed. The early use of the word as an individual name with plural coaks, cokes, would agree with this. (Thence also modern French coke plural cokes.) Compare for both sense and form, the following, which appears to combine the senses of core and cinder. 1878 Cumbrld. Gloss. (E.D.S.), Cowk, the core. ‘It's badly burnt lime, it's nought but cowks.’

The solid substance left after mineral coal has been deprived by dry distillation of its volatile constituents, being a form of carbon of more compact texture, but with more impurities, than the charcoal obtained by a similar process from wood.

†a. with a and plural. Obsolete.

1795 J. Aikin Descr. Country round Manch. 314 Beds of cokes or cinders have been discovered.

1883 T. Lees Easther's Gloss. Dial. Almondbury & Huddersfield Couk, a cinder.

b. as a substance: no plural. Slang phr. (imperative) go and eat coke: refrain from addressing, or otherwise annoying, the speaker.
