A derogatory term for an Asian person or person of
Asian decent. Most notably used in conjunction with the Korean and Vietnam wars, where most
GIs would simply refer to thier enemies as
Gooks, although it commonly is used as a distasteful slur against any Asian in modern speech.
"Goddamn
gooks wont stop comin'! We
gun down a whole regiment and another hundred pop up outta nowhere!" (IE Vietnam)
"Hey man, i got new neighbors... Its a bunch of fuckin'
Gooks... damn bastards cant drive for shit!" (modern context)
