单词 huck
释义

huckn.1

Brit. /hʌk/, U.S. /hək/
Forms: Middle English hoke(bone), 1500s huc(bone), huke(bane), 1600s huck(bone), 1700s huke, 1800s dialect hug, heuk, huck.
Etymology: Etymology uncertain.The origin of huck is obscure, and the chronological evidence leaves its historical relation to huck-bone , huck-back , huckle , huckle-bone , huckle-back , far from clear. For, while the compound huck-bone is found in 1440, huck itself is not cited till late in the 18th cent.; on the other hand, the apparent diminutive huckle , and its compound huckle-bone , are found soon after 1500. The two earliest examples, Middle English hoke-bone and Scots huke-bane , answer exactly in form to hook-bone ; but identity of huck with hook n.1, though not impossible, is not greatly favoured by the sense or phonology of the group as a whole. It is possible that the origin is to be sought in the Germanic root huk-, hūk-, hukk-, to be bent, whence Middle Dutch huken and hukken, Middle Low German hûken, Old Norse húka, to crouch, sit bent, sit on the haunches. When the body is bent, the hip-joints play the chief part.
Obsolete exc. dialect.

huckv.

Brit. /hʌk/, U.S. /hək/
Forms: Middle English huk, hukke, 1500s–1600s hucke, 1500s– huck.
Etymology: In form, the base of huckster n., but the chronological evidence makes their actual relations difficult to determine. Huck has iterative derivatives, hucker v. and huckle v.1, which favours its being an old word; it agrees also in form and sense with German dialect hocken, höcken, hucken to huckster: see Grimm.
Obsolete exc. dialect.
a. intransitive. To higgle in trading; to haggle over a bargain; to chaffer, bargain. Also figurative. To haggle over terms, to stickle.
