What is the Meaning of Fark?

The Definition of Fark

The slang term “fark” is a phrase used to replace a harsh or offensive word when a situation does not allow you to use the wrong word itself. Most often, “fark” replaces the obvious “f$%k” when swearing. It is used to express extreme surprise or anger.

For example: “Fark off.”

The Origin of Fark

About “f.u.ck”, it is unknown, but possibly Middle English, of North Germanic origin, related to the Norwegian dialect fukka (“to have s.e.x; to kiss”), Swedish Bohuslän fokka (formerly “to kiss); to push ; push ”, today focka (“ shoot from the work ”), the Swedish fock (“ the pe.n.is ”) and the central Dutch (and modern Dutch) fokken (“ for crosses ”). The first verifiable use of the word in a s.e.xually explicit context in any period of English appears in court documents from Chester County, England, which first mention a man named “Roger Fuckebythenaosystem” on December 8, 1310. It was listed for the first time in the dictionary in 1598.

No information is known on the specific origins of the term “fark” other than to say that it is widely used in parts of Australia and New Zealand. The term can start in these regions and progress through Internet communication in other places. In Australia and New Zealand, the “fark” is only mildly offensive compared to the “f.u.c.k” itself. The only pronunciation difference between “fark” and “f.u.c.k” is the length of the vowels; f.u.c.k is pronounced / fak / in Australia and / fɐk / in New Zealand.

How do We Use the Term Fark?

Example 1

Student A: Fark it! I left all my textbooks at school and now it is closed due to Covid-19!

Student B: Calm down. What’s your problem then?

Student A: How am I supposed to do my homework? It’s huge lot of homework I’m talking about!

Student B: Don’t bother. The deadline will be reset after the vacation. Anyway, the teachers have already uploaded online materials. Go search for that yourself.

Student A: Thanks God. You saved my life.

In this example, two friends were talking about their homework and textbooks. One friend was surprised to find out he had left all at school and was in panic. The other comforted him by saying the deadline was not due and all the materials could be found online.

Example 2

Game player 1: Fark off you stupid a.s.s!

Game player 2: Are you talking about me?

Game player 1: No! I was talking about the zombie that was right after me.

Game player 2: Don’t worry. I’m coming!

Game player 1: Forget it. It killed me.

In this example, we can clearly see that there are two players in one game speaking to each other. One was chased after by a “zombie” (a game character) and he told it to “fark off” (=to go away). The other heard and came for help but it was too late.
