Quack is the sound a duck makes.

Quack is also the name for someone who is a phony. One way that people use this word is a "quack doctor". A quack doctor sells people bad medicine that doesn't make people feel better.

A quack is a fake doctor who tries to sell his medicine on to people when they dont really make you better which opposes them to be fake. They tell people that they can cure everything but they carnt they just con you into going to them when they dont cure you they just make you feel a little bit better. They also take all the jobs off the doctors who have been to university to study Galen to become a doctor and then Quacks are just taking there jobs away from them.

A reference to the word "quack" was made on television series QI for being proven to be funnier than other farm yard animal noises. Due to the way the word is pronounced it naturally forces people to smile enticing others to smile or even laugh.
