How to use "Shack" in context?
What is a shack?
Shack is a houses or other buildings made from cheap materials, typically wooden slats or simple sheets of metal, placed on legs or poles so they can be moved around. They are mostly found in rural areas, but are also found in many urban areas. They are typically used for shelter, storage, or as a place to cook food.
The word "shack" comes from the Dutch word "schack", meaning "sheep house". The term was transferred to English when sheep were herded in these houses. The earliest known example of a shack is from 1686 in North Carolina.
