It is not clear which language the word junk comes from but it has been recorded as early as 1353 as a term used by sailors to describe old rope that was used to protect the ship's bows and masts from weather damage. The word also describes a certain type of Chinese boat. It has also evolved, in modern times, as a synonym for heroin.
