/pikt/

Forms: Middle English peked, Middle English pekede, Middle English pekyd, 1500s–1700s 1900s– peeked, 1600s–1700s peakt, 1600s–1700s piqued, 1600s– peaked; Scottish 1700s– peaked, 1900s– peakit.

a. Having or reaching a peak; projecting, pointed; cut, trimmed, or brought to a peak or point. [In quot. c1350 apparently arising from a misreading of Middle French cornaile (cornel-cherry) as cornier (angled, pointed).]
