Pronunciation

• (UK, US) IPA^(key): /t͡ʃɪŋk/

Etymology 1

Of uncertain origin, but apparently an extension (with formative -k) of Middle English chine, from Old English ċine (“a crack, chine, chink”), equivalent to chine +‎ -k.

Alternatively, the -k may represent an earlier unrecorded diminutive, perhaps from Middle English *chinek, making it equivalent to chine +‎ -ock (diminutive ending).
