Origin

Middle English: probably from an Old Northern French variant of Old French çouche, çoche 'block, log', of unknown ultimate origin.

  • A chock, as in ‘chocks away!’, is a wedge or block placed against a wheel to prevent it from moving or to support it. It is probably from Old French çouche or çoche, meaning ‘block or log’. Chock-a-block (mid 19th century), ‘crammed full’, was originally a nautical expression which referred to a pair of pulley blocks with ropes threaded between to form a hoist or tackle—when they have been pulled so close together that the two blocks touch, further lifting is impossible. The expression was probably influenced by chock-full, a much older term meaning ‘filled to overflowing’. Where this comes from is uncertain, though ‘chock’ here may have been a form of choke (ME from Old English ceoce ‘jaw), from the idea of being so full that you are almost choking.

Rhymes

ad hoc, amok, Bangkok, baroque, belle époque, bloc, block, bock, brock, chock-a-block, clock, doc, dock, floc, flock, frock, hock, hough, interlock, jock, knock, langue d'oc, lock, Locke, Médoc, mock, nock, o'clock, pock, post hoc, roc, rock, schlock, shock, smock, sock, Spock, stock, wok, yapok
