hardockn.

Brit.

/ˈhɑːdɒk/, U.S.

/ˈhɑrˌdɑk/

Forms: 1600s hardokes (plural), 1600s hordock, 1600s– hardock.

Origin: Of uncertain origin.

Etymology: Origin uncertain. In quot. 1608 (on which all later use is likely to be based) probably a compositorial error for burdock n., to which the word has frequently been emended in editions of Shakespeare. See discussion in S. G. Wells & G. Taylor Shakespeare: A Textual Companion (1987) 521.It has also been suggested that the word is < hoar adj. + dock n.¹, the plant perhaps being so called on account of its hoary foliage (which is unlikely on formal grounds), or that the word is a compositorial error for charlock n. (so K. Sprynkle-Jackson in Eng. Lang. Notes (1989) 26 15–23).

Now rare.

Any of various weeds, spec. the burdock, Arctium lappa.The identity of hor-dock in quot. 1608 is uncertain, but it has been widely interpreted as the burdock, and the form may show an error for burdock. Later use may all be based ultimately on this instance.
