Additional Information
Phrasal Verbs
Etymology
1. "to strike sharply," 1719, probably of imitative origin. The noun is from 1737. The word in
out of whack (1885) is perhaps the slang meaning "share, just portion" (1785), which may be from the notion of the blow that divides, or the rap of the auctioneer's hammer.
2. Uncertain. Originally Scottish; probably onomatopoeic, but compare Middle English thakken, from Old English þaccian (whence Modern thwack by conflation with whack). Sense 6 of the verb is likely a semantic loan from Malay hentam (“to strike; to do something carelessly”). See: Middle English '
thakken', Old English '
þaccian'.
