Etymology

From Proto-Germanic *fuk(k)ōn- (to blow), from Proto-Indo-European *pug-néh₂-.[1] Probably related to Dutch fok (foresail), but it is unclear whether either language borrowed the term from the other.

  1. (nautical) A jib (triangular sail attached to the forestay of a sailboat, the clew of which reaches back about to the level of the mast).
