Brilliant! AND...it's a word known to probably every English speaker on the planet....also....it's one of the first English words ever learned by a non-native speaker.

I remember being told it was an acronym. I don't know if that's true. Fornication Under Carnal Knowledge F.U.C.K. Anybody else ever here that?

It's wrong. I looked it up. I found the following:
Middle Dutch fokken = “to thrust, copulate with”; Norwegian dialect fukka = “to copulate”; and Swedish dialect focka = “to strike, push, copulate” and fock = “penis”. Although German ficken may enter the picture somehow, it is problematic in having e-grade, or umlaut, where all the others have o-grade or zero-grade of the vowel.
There's also a village in Austria called Fucking
I didn't see any history there. I always assumed the word was meant to describe the sound made from thighs hitting ass cheeks.
