different between dunce vs doink
dunce
English
Etymology
1530, named after John Duns Scotus (c. 1266–1308).
Scotus was ironically a well-known Scottish thinker. His followers, however, opposed the philosophers of the Renaissance, and thus "dunce" was first used to describe someone rejecting new knowledge in 1530; later, any stupid person.
