Phillip | the word 'ruck':lancs/chshire/staffs? (37) | RE: the word 'ruck':lancs/chshire/staffs? | 28 Aug 03 |
The idea of this use of the word being to do with the bird "rook" is a bit wide of the mark, I think, because of local pronunciation. I would pronounce rook with a long vowel, but ruck with a completely different short vowel. |
