/sprɪŋk/

Forms: Middle English sprynk, Middle English 1600s 1800s sprinke, 1500s sprincke, 1500s 1700s– sprink, 1900s– sprunk (past tense and past participle).

Origin: Either (i) formed within English, by clipping or shortening. Or perhaps (ii) a variant or alteration of another lexical item. Etymons: sprinkle v.²; spring v.¹

Etymology: Either shortened < sprinkle v.², or perhaps a variant or alteration of spring v.¹ (compare spring v.¹ 4 and see note). Perhaps compare North Frisian (Insular) spreenke to sprinkle, moisten.Compare sprinke (13th cent.), sprink (18th cent.), occasional variants of spring v.¹ in other senses. Historically the verb is conjugated weak (compare e.g. quot. 1866); occasional recent examples of a strong past tense and past participle form sprunk are probably after sprung , past tense and past participle of spring v.¹

Now rare (English regional (Lincolnshire) in later use).
