toque (a close-fitting knitted winter hat; this usage is most common in Canada, where the word "tuque," a French-Canadian variant of "toque," is also used: It's Canada Day and, because you're a Canuck just like any other hoser in a toque with a toonie, you can nab a double-double and chill out, or kick back with a brewski and Buffalo wings for some R & R, eh? That is, if you know what it means. Because it's one thing to become Canadian; it's another thing to speak Canadian. ART Vancouver) |
