הענטשיקע, האַנטשיך, האַנטשן
'glove'

ETYMOLOGY

The older form is likely הענטשיך (which is still used by Hasidim today). The Slavic suffix ־קע was probably added in imitation of Polish rękawiczka and Ukrainian рукавичка 'glove'.

IV. The idiom וואַרפֿן די הענטשקע 'to throw the glove (i.e., challenge to a duel)' appears to be a calque of Polish rzucić / rzucać rękawicę 'to throw the glove (i.e., to provoke someone)'.
