Etymology

From Middle English ruddocke, ruddok, roddok, from Old English rudduc, ruduc (“robin, ruddock”, literally “little red one, red-ling”), equivalent to rud (“redness”) +‎ -ock (diminutive suffix). The Welsh rhuddog, and Cornish rudhek (“the redbreast”) are probably from the English, although a derivation from a British Celtic *roudākos (< *roudos "red") for all three cannot be ruled out. More at rud.

Pronunciation

  • IPA(key): /ˈɹʌdək/

Noun

ruddock (plural ruddocks)

  1. (archaic) The European robin.
  2. (obsolete) A piece of gold money (probably because the gold of coins was often reddened by copper alloy).
  3. (obsolete) A variety of red apple, used for cidermaking.
