Etymology of Jandke

Etymology of Jandke

The term "Jandke" is derived from a corruption of "hand": namely, "jand" combined with KE, which stands for kinetic energy. The act of waving, a form of greeting, is accomplished when one utilizes energy to move the hand. Thus, Jandke has come to stand for a form of greeting.

And it also means "Thank you".

Pretty cool, huh?
