Etymology 1

From Dutch fok, from Middle Dutch focke, further origin unclear.[1] Possibly from the verb vocken (to blow), itself of uncertain origin, perhaps related to Faroese fokka (jib), though this could have been a reverse borrowing. Both of these could be from Proto-Germanic *fuk(k)ōn- (to blow), from Proto-Indo-European *pug-néh₂-.[2]

Noun

fok (plural fokke, diminutive fokkie)

  1. (nautical) A foresail

Etymology 2

From Dutch fokken, from Middle Dutch focken, vocken, from Old Dutch *fokken, possibly of Scandinavian/North Germanic origin (compare Norwegian fukka, Swedish fokka), ultimately from Proto-Germanic *fukkōną.[3] Likely related to German ficken. The pejorative senses and usage are semantic loans of English fuck.[4]
