Where it comes from
Borrowed from Austrian German Fucking. The association with the unrelated vulgar term fucking led to a name change in 2020.
proper noun
- A village in the Innviertel region of Upper Austria, part of the municipality of Tarsdorf, now called Fugging. Located 260km (161 miles) west of Vienna, Fucking has in recent years become a popular stop-off point for tourists, particularly from English-speaking countries, who snap pictures of themselves by the signposts at the entrance and exit to the village and post them on social media.
