"jonk" meaning in Luxembourgish

See jonk in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Adjective

IPA: /joŋk/
Rhymes: -oŋk Etymology: From Middle High German junc, from Old High German jung. The -k belongs to the uninflected stem (through final devoicing when -ng- was still a consonant cluster). Though adjectives have usually generalized the inflected stem (cf. laang, not *lank), there are exceptions with generalization of the basic form.
