Etymology of JOUNCE

The word "jounce" has an uncertain etymology. It is believed to have originated in the early 19th century in the United States as a verb meaning "to jolt" or "to bounce". However, its specific origin is unclear, and scholars differ in their theories.

Some etymologists speculate that "jounce" may be a blend or contraction of the words "jump" and "bounce", combining their meanings into one word. Others suggest that it may have derived from the French verb "jancer", meaning "to move quickly" or "to dance". Another theory proposes that it could have evolved from the Dutch word "jonsen", meaning "to shake" or "to knock".

Ultimately, the exact origin of "jounce" remains speculative, and no definitive etymology has been established.
