"Thunk" is not proper English at all. It is used either humorously or ignorantly. The word is "thought."

Thunk is a sound made by a falling or thrown object when it hits something, similar to thud.

A thunk in computer science or computer programming refers to a hidden activity occurring when passing possibly incompatible parameters to a subroutine.
