But so was "crack " in English, it's just fallen into disuse. See what's left behind:
I had a cracking time in Dublin.
It's a cracker
Crackerjack
A cracking show

Well thank god it’s been revived.
Cracking word, is craic.

Del Boy once said; “as the French say, ‘mon de tout de tête’!”

Loved Del Boys misuse of French.

I'm talking about the entomology of the word, the history of it.

I like the the word ‘Jazz’ for this very reason (purported origins).

Looked it up in translater and it has it down as Filipino.
Meaning: Open it.
Well I never.

Presumably as in ‘throttle’.

The worst example is the bastardisation of the English language by the Americans....
And yes ironic seeing as i now live here.... The use of the word "guys" (especially when said as in "listen up guys") and refering to both sexes gets me going.

Does the word, ‘chaps’ also, ‘get you going?’
;-)
