Right folks, we need assistance.
Due to a misspelt word - WEKK
some of us are now trying to put a definition to it


could it be a swear word, a word relating to being thickand many others.

so please help out and add WHAT you think WEKK should stand for

Google defines it as being Canadian slang...

However, we need to have it in context. If I recall correctly, it was used to describe you, Prof...

As such, it could mean any number of things. Probably some of them are polite... some might even be suitable for talking about in front of children, but probably not in front of senior members of a family, and definitely nobody susceptable to nightmares. Perhaps the safest course of action is just to nod, innocently, and say "aye... and yourself?"

never thought of google'ing it

From the title, I thought it was an exclamation indicating surprise.
For example, describing the Prof : "WEKK! What's that weird thing over there?!?!"

Of course, having the word in context would help for finding an acurate-ish definition.

I am sooooo glad I misspelled that word

>>Of course, having the word in context would help for finding an acurate-ish definition<<

As in 'He's a complete wekker?'

I'm feeling particularly wekk this morning ....

It's obviously Advanced Yorkshire for "What the 'eck?"

Old Lancashire phrase 'I'm Wekkin' cold'

to WEKK

The word was used, today, on BBC radio four, I think in the 6.30 comedy slot... I'm pretty* sure its the word I heard anyhow... shocked me...

That's very risque of Radio 4 is it not?

The first thing that sprung to mind was a word defining the days from Monday to Friday.

Good Day. Wekk, or to give it its proper Transalvanian couture, is the sound made upon being suprised by the sudden appearance of a Vampire. Like so: Hello, yes it is so good to meet you too. I must say that the price of Van Halen albums has crashed over the year - so annoying when the FT actually forecast they would rise in value...WEKK!!!!! A Vampire!!

If you listen carefully, you will hear the spanish man in this link say WEKK!! when signor Dracula sneaks up on him while dancing the Cha Cha
