- qu'il aille à Charenton, et hut. Martainville, Une Demi-heure de cabaret, 1804
- Sais-tu la musique ? eh bien ut. Ut, zut may be a corruption of the Latin ut, a word used in typographers' jargon: Ut […] C'est le premier mot du souhait que se faisoient en buvant les anciens imprimeurs […] : Ut tibi prosit meri potio (« Que grand bien vous fasse ce bon vin pur »). Par abréviation l'on se contenta ensuite du mot ut. Gattel, 1797
- From an older word, zot, which is found in diablezot
- It may be purely onomatopoeic, as pft, pfuit; see zou
