Etymology 1

From Middle English raket. Possibly cognate with Middle French rachette, requette (palm of the hand). Possibly from Arabic ??????? ???????? (r??at al-yad, palm of the hand), although this is doubtful. Instead, the term is more likely to be derived from Dutch raketsen, from Middle French rachasser (to strike (the ball) back).
