Linguistic
The place name Tschugg goes back to a generic word of the same name, which means 'rock head', 'large, round ledge'.
The popular opinion that the expression Tschugger for 'policeman' goes back to the Zeeland village is not tenable. Linguists suspect it comes from the Hebrew chockar 'he spied '. Tschugger would have got through Yiddish into Rotwelsch and from there into Swiss German, where he means 'policeman' and / or 'pig'. Non-Swiss evidence of the word Tschugger can be found in the dialects of Germany: Schu (c) ker for 'Landjäger' or Schogger, Schocker in the Palatinate for 'police officer'.
