Honkey

[Sarah]

the scum of the earth; a perpetual liar; a deranged monkey with delusions of grandeur.

[Luis Fok]

Term for caucasian. Derogatory.
Origin unknown for certain.
Possibly derived from the Wolof word xonk (pronounced like honk, but with a guttural H at the beginning), meaning red. Wolof people in West Africa sometimes call white people xonk-nopp, or red-ears. It has been speculated that first generation Wolof-speaking slaves may have popularized this term.
Skeptics might point out that the most slaves came from south-west Africa and further east in West-Africa than Senegal, where Wolof people live.
However, many slaves passed through Goree Island, near Dakar, the largest Wolof city. So the term could have been popularized there.
Also, the Wolof language, having developed as a trade language, is relatively easy to pick up in its most basic form. It is also a rather staccato and crisp language, which might make it easier for non-speakers to pick up on particular words. Lastly, Wolof is spoken in a way that seems unnecessarily aggressive, even when its not intended to be. (The Wolof are sometimes referred to as the Germans of Africa) This all might tend to make make a derogatory Wolof word catch on relatively faster than a similar Mandink or Ibo word among a multilingual group like first generation slaves.

[Tanya Shivari]

derogatory noun for a white person
Several definitions provided for honkey/honky can be reconciled considering the likely subversive evolution of this term. The African slave pidgin term xong for red ears is the deep origin. (The ring of truth for how white ears behave under the African sun is almost ineluctible.)
Red-ears/honk-ears would emerge immediately into slaves cant upon arrival to America, eventually morphing into honky/honkey.
Definitions involving geese-voices or horse-donkeys are probably spontaneous inventions of users unaware of the words original meaning. Through this process, by the time automobiles became popular honkey had already become more a derogatory adjective/adverb for anything white rather than a noun for a white person -- white music = honkey music, white attituded = honkey attitude etc. Use of car horns to call prostitutes represented the first time blacks publicly applied the term to white people, much amused by whiteys failure to grasp that its real meaning was everything uptight, false, crappy, etc. whitey had ever done to black people. And now the term had the added richness of incorporating sexual inadequacy to the list of honkey attributes (premised on the prostitutes experience with their white clients.)
So, basically, when used in its full epithetical sense, honkey means a shitty human being with a small dick that doesnt work.

[Hina Muqadas]

In segregated times honey refers to a white man going to a black neighborhood to pick up a black woman. He would not get put of the car so he would just honk the horn. So yes that is a very offense a word to any white male.

[Britney]

Often mistaken as a negative term for white people, (such as nigger for blacks) but it is not. When the white man came to get a slave in the old days, he would drive up in his truck and signal the slave owner by honking his horn, thus the slaves would call them honkey.
White people are not offended by this term.

[Tina]

insult to white people. same as whitey and cracker, but no white person is offended by these words no matter who is saying them. unless u call a wigger a honkey. then they get pissed.
