| bumpkin | An awkward, heavy country fellow; a clown; a country lout. "Bashful country bumpkins." Origin: The same word as bumkin, which Cotgrave defines thus: "Bumkin, Fr. Chicambault, the luffe-block, a long and thick piece of wood, whereunto the fore-sayle and sprit-sayle are fastened, when a ship goes by the winde." Hence, a clumsy man may easily have been compared to such a block of wood; cf. OD. Boomken a little tree. See Boom a pole. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
