Etymology

Template:unk., but probably from (deprecated template usage) [etyl] Middle English *fucken, of (deprecated template usage) [etyl] Lua error in Module:parameters at line 360: Parameter 1 should be a valid language or etymology language code; the value "gmq" is not valid. See WT:LOL and WT:LOL/E. origin, related to dialectal Norwegian fukka (“to copulate; fuck”), Bohuslän Swedish fokka (earlier "to fuck; thrust; push", nowadays focka (“to fire from work”)), Swedish fock (“penis”), and Middle Dutch (and Modern Dutch) fokken (“to breed”). It may go back to the (deprecated template usage) [etyl] Proto-Indo-European *pug-, *puǵ- ("to strike"; source of Latin pugnus (“fist”) among many others), or to (deprecated template usage) [etyl] Proto-Indo-European *puḱn-, *pewḱ- ("to sting, stick, stab"; compare <span class="deprecated" title="Template:etyl is no longer in use. See WT:ETYM.">(deprecated template usage) [etyl] German ficken (“to fuck”)). The word may be attested in a 772 charter which mentions a place called Fuccerham, which possibly means “ham (“home”) of the fucker” or “hamm (“pasture”) of the fucker”. The earliest verifiable use of the word in an unambiguously sexual context in any stage of English appears in court documents from Chester county, England, which first mention a man called "Roger Fuckebythenavele" on December 8, 1310.[1][2] It was first listed in a dictionary in 1598.[3]

Compare (deprecated template usage) [etyl] Scots fuk, fuck, attested slightly earlier.

A range of folk-etymological backronyms has been advanced, such as "fornication under consent of the king" and "for unlawful carnal knowledge", which are all demonstrably false.
