Etymology of RUCKLES
The word "ruckles" is a Scottish term that refers to the creases or wrinkles that form in fabric. It is derived from the Old Norse word "hrukka", meaning a fold or crease. The term was adopted into the Scots language, which is a Germanic language closely related to English, spoken in Scotland. Over time, "hrukka" evolved into "ruckle" in Scots, and "ruckles" became the plural form of the word.
