How Do You Spell SOOGEE?

Pronunciation: [sˈuːd͡ʒiː] (IPA)

"Soogee" is a British English spelling of a word that means "a person who washes dishes or utensils." Its pronunciation is /suːɡiː/ or soo-jee, with the emphasis on the first syllable. The word comes from the Hindi word "sūkhi," meaning "dry." In the 19th century, it was commonly used in British India and colonial territories, but it has since fallen out of use, with "dishwasher" being the more widely recognized term in modern English.

Etymology of SOOGEE

The word "soogee" is derived from the Portuguese term "sujar", which means "to dirty" or "to soil". It came into English usage through the British Empire's contact with various Portuguese-speaking regions, such as Brazil and parts of Africa. Over time, "sujar" evolved into "sugee" or "soogee" and referred specifically to the act of cleaning or scrubbing, particularly in relation to household chores.
