Oh, goody! I was afraid I was being IMPERTINENT again. Oh, I must go to bed. I have a HUGE day tomorrow, with performers and food and house guests and Weirding this little town o' mine. Wish my luck, my duckling.
You can, if you like. But macabre as I sometimes am, I always preferred the Jack luck, such as the fairy folk of a Charles De Lint novel might wish each other. Luck is a good word. Where does it come from?
ORIGIN late Middle English (as a verb): perhaps from Middle Low German or Middle Dutch lucken. The noun use (late 15th cent.) is from Middle Low German lucke, related to Dutch geluk, German Glück, of West Germanic origin and possibly related to lock 1 .
