The word chink is derived form Middle English, crack and the Old English word 'cine'. It holds various meanings to it such as a narrow opening, which could either be a crack or a fissure. It is also sometime referred to a slight, metallic sound, which is made due to coins rattling in the pockets.

It is also very ethnic insulting terms that is used people from East Asia. Most of them are Chinese. In fact it is very equivalent to calling a black a nigger or even a Hispanic a spic.
