Etymology of NICKER

The word "nicker" has multiple meanings and origins depending on the context. Here are two possible etymologies:

1. Nicker as a verb, meaning a soft and low whinnying sound made by a horse when it greets or is communicating with others, comes from Middle English "nikeren" or "nekere". Its origin is imitative, derived from the sound itself, similar to the neighing sound horses produce.

2. Nicker as a noun, meaning a unit of currency, particularly a pound (sterling) in British slang, has a different etymology. This usage is believed to have originated in the early 20th century and comes from the Romani language. In Romani, the word for "one" is "nikker". British slang often incorporated Romani words, and over time, "nikker" transformed into "nicker" to represent a British pound.
