1.臥鋪，詞源同bench, 長凳。

2.胡說，美國地名Buncombe的縮寫。來自美國歷史上真實的歷史事件，在1820年一次州議會上，Buncombe郡議員Felix Walker滔滔不絕講了十幾個小時，其它議員不耐煩了，問他什么時候講完，他回答說，我講這么長是想向我們郡百姓證明我是盡職盡責的。這一事件直接或間接導致了以后的會議限制發言時間。

bunk (n.1)

"sleeping berth," 1758, probably a shortened form of bunker (n.) in its sense "seat." Bunk-bed (n.) attested by 1869.

bunk (n.2)

"nonsense," 1900, short for bunkum, phonetic spelling of Buncombe, a county in North Carolina. The usual story (by 1841) of its origin is this: At the close of the protracted Missouri statehood debates, supposedly on Feb. 25, 1820, N.C. Representative Felix Walker (1753-1828) began what promised to be a "long, dull, irrelevant speech," and he resisted calls to cut it short by saying he was bound to say something that could appear in the newspapers in the home district and prove he was on the job. "I shall not be speaking to the House," he confessed, "but to Buncombe." Bunkum has been American English slang for "nonsense" since 1841 (from 1838 as generic for "a U.S. Representative's home district").

MR. WALKER, of North Carolina, rose then to address the Committee on the question [of Missouri statehood]; but the question was called for so clamorously and so perseveringly that Mr. W. could proceed no farther than to move that the committee rise. [Annals of Congress, House of Representatives, 16th Congress, 1st Session, p. 1539]

bunk (v.)
