bickn.¹

Brit.

/bɪk/, U.S.

/bɪk/, Scottish English

/bɪk/

Forms: late Middle English bycke, late Middle English bykk (northern), late Middle English bylke (transmission error); Scottish pre-1700 1900s– bik, 1700s– bick, 1900s bekk (Shetland), 1900s– bikk.

Origin: Probably either (i) a borrowing from early Scandinavian. Or oerhaps (ii) a variant or alteration of another lexical item. Etymon: bitch n.¹

Etymology: Probably (i) < early Scandinavian (compare Old Icelandic bikkja and the Scandinavian forms cited at bitch n.¹), or perhaps (ii) a northern and Scots variant of bitch n.¹, showing either failure of palatalization and assibilation of /k/ or (more likely) restoration of the velar sounds, probably resulting from the influence of the corresponding forms in early Scandinavian. In Orkney and Shetland use probably partly via the unattested Norn reflex of the early Scandinavian word represented by Old Icelandic bikkja (see above).

Scottish in later use.
