Ετυμολογία (Αγγλικός)

Κληρονομήθηκε από Μέσα Ολλανδικά: honc

Κληρονομήθηκε από Old Dutch: -

In summary

From Middle Dutch honc, likely through Old Dutch from Proto-Germanic *hank-, *hunk-. Only has cognates in the Frisian languages and possibly in the Old High German placename Hancwin. Since cognates outside of Germanic are lacking, the word is probably of substrate origin. Possibly related to haak (“hook”) and hoek (“corner”).
