A mispelling of the word crack. The word originates from the Anglo-Saxon term, "crack" meaning fun.
It possibly dates back as far as Old English or the older Scots dialect and is still used today by Ulster-Scots in northern areas of Ireland.
Borrowed by the Gaelic Irish and spelt "craic", the term has been picked up by UK journalists in recent years and has re-entered the use of the word in mainland UK, however Dublin journalists in the 1970s frequently spelt the word as "crack" in written articles.
