neuken

Etymology

Related to German Low German nöken (“to have intercourse; have sex”). Ultimately from Proto-Germanic *hnukjaną (“to bend; flex; clump together”), with a special sense development in North Germanic, Old Dutch, and Old Saxon of "push, thrust, bump", from Proto-Indo-European *knewg- (“to press; bend”), from *ken- (“to press; pinch”). Cognate with Old Norse hnykkja (“to snatch; pull violently”), Danish nykke (“to thrust; bump”), Swedish dialectal nycka (“to bump; push”), Old English hnocc (“penis”), Old English ġehnycned (“drawn up; pinched”). More at nook.

The sense “to disrespect” is borrowed from English fuck.
