A racial slur for East and Southeast Asians; essentially the equivalent of the n-word. First used in the Philippine-American War, it was used as a term for enemy combatants before repeated and widespread use in Asian wars (namely the Korean and Vietnam Wars) made it a racial slur. In the USA, it is more commonly - but not exclusively - directed at the Vietnamese. Often erroneously thought to have originated in the Korean War after soldiers misheard "mi-guk" (Korean for America) as "me gook"; use of the word "gook" dates back to the late 19th or early 20th century.
