What is yonk?

Yonkes is an informal (slang) Spanish word used for junk and/or junk-yards. Yonkes does NOT refer to "Yankees" as some monolingual English people erroneously assume. This word is iconic at Chicano Park in Barrio Logan, San Diego, CA thanks to a civil-rights-era mural that reads "Varrio Si, Yonkes No." Meaning "yes to community, no to junk-yards." This was in response to the City of San Diego's decision to zone junk-yards in a heavily Mexican community during the 1960's.

Spanish: Vamos a los yonkes a comprar unas partes para mi carro.
English: Let's go to the junk-yards to buy some parts for my car.

What does "yonk" mean?

A form of school ground hazing. Originating in a suburb of Cincinnati, Ohio. (Greenhills)

A "yonk" occurs as someone sneaks up behind another person, places one hand on the back of the yonkee's neck. Then grabs their forehead and proceeds to make a neck-breaking motion. This subsequently followed by saying (or yelling) some obnoxious sound effect. The intent is not to injure anything but pride.

That new kid just got "Yonked." Hope his neck is OK.

Yonk - what does it mean?

A member of the Irish Travellers who funds his or her lifestyle through fraud, mostly committed against the elderly. They typically offer to do home improvement work at an attractive price, then either run off with the money, or if they actually do the work, do a substandard job and then demand more money. Female yonks enjoy five finger discounts at department stores, attempting to exchange the stolen goods for cash.

Then they all go out for Sushi with their ill gained loot, parading their "lackeen" toddler daughters around like Jon Benet Ramsey.

yonk: "I noticed your drive-way needs paving. I was doing work up the street and have plenty left over for another job. I'll only charge you forty dollars..."

you: Fuck off you yonk bastard!

The only species of Yonk left is found in a methodist school in Singapore, it likes coconuts, but only those found on the ground, not those on the tree, which has a high risk of hitting Yonk's skull.

Yonk

A word that is spoken or muttered while someone is in the process of swiping (swipe) an item that already belongs to them. Similar to 'yoink' except 'yoink' is spoken when someone is swiping an item that rightfully belongs to someone else.

Dennis said 'yonk' as he swiped his cassette adaptor from the cassette deck of the Chevy Suburban. Now how am I going to listen to my iPod on the way home from work.
