Etymology of HADDEST HUNCH

The phrase "haddest hunch" does not have a specific etymology because it is not a recognized word or phrase in the English language. It appears to be a combination of two separate words: "haddest" and "hunch".

"Haddest" is the archaic second-person singular past tense and subjunctive mood of the verb "have" in Middle English. It was used to denote possession or ownership in older forms of English.

"Hunch", on the other hand, is a modern English word derived from the Old French word "haunce" which meant a push or jolt. Over time, it came to be used as a noun to refer to a gut feeling, an intuitive sense, or a premonition about something.
