Etymologia (Angielski)

Dziedziczone z średnioangielski: chine

Dziedziczone z staroangielski: ċine

Dziedziczone z średnioangielski: *chinek

In summary

Of uncertain origin, but apparently an extension (with diminutive -k) of Middle English chine, from Old English ċine (“a crack, chine, chink”), equivalent to chine + -k.
Alternatively, the -k may represent an earlier unrecorded diminutive, perhaps from Middle English *chinek, making it equivalent to chine + -ock (diminutive ending).
