sneak
sneak |snēk snik | ▶verb ( past sneaked or informal snuck |ˈsnək | ) [ no obj. ] move or go in a furtive or stealthy manner: I sneaked out by the back exit. • [ with obj. ] convey (someone or something ) in such a way: someone sneaked a camera inside. • [ with obj. ] do or obtain (something ) in a stealthy or furtive way: she sneaked a glance at her watch. • (sneak up on ) creep up on (someone ) without being detected: he sneaks up on us slyly. ▶noun informal 1 a furtive and contemptible person: he was branded a prying sneak for eavesdropping on intimate conversation. 2 (usu. sneaks ) short for sneaker. ▶adjective [ attrib. ] acting or done surreptitiously, unofficially, or without warning: a sneak thief | a sneak preview. ORIGIN late 16th cent.: probably dialect; perhaps related to obsolete snike ‘to creep. ’ usage: The traditional standard past form of sneak is sneaked ( she sneaked around the corner ). An alternative past form, snuck ( she snuck past me ), arose in the US in the 19th century. Until very recently, snuck was confined to US dialect use and was regarded as nonstandard. However, in the last few decades, its use has spread in the US, where it is now regarded as a standard alternative to sneaked in all but the most formal contexts. In the Oxford English Corpus, there are now more US citations for snuck than there are for sneaked, and there is evidence of snuck gaining ground in British English as well.
