Etimología (Inglés)

20th century, from Low German tuckern (“to throb, pulsate”, 19th c.), iterative of tucken (“to jerk, twitch, beat, hit”), which is cognate with Dutch tokken, tukken, German zucken, zücken, and thus ultimately related to ziehen (“to pull”). The semantic development within Low German as well as the adoption into Standard German were reinforced by the word’s onomatopoeic quality.
