What steak means

A thick slice of meat, typically beef, cut across the muscle fibers and usually cooked by grilling or frying until brown on the outside.

Where the word comes from

Steak comes from Old Norse *steik*, meaning a slice of meat to be roasted or fried. The word entered Middle English via Scandinavian settlers in England and eventually developed into the modern form. It may ultimately relate to Proto-Germanic *stik-, meaning a stick or pointed object, reflecting the practice of cooking meat on a spit.
