rots of ruck
rots of ruck
offensive slang An intentional mispronunciation of "lots of luck" based on the tendency of non-native English speakers from East Asia, especially Japan and China, to conflate the sounds of the letter L and the letter R. My grandfather was always fond of wishing us "rots of ruck" whenever we left his house.
