It is uncertain as to where the word "shark" came from because before the 16th century sharks were known as "sea dogs". It is believed that the word came from the Yucatec Maya word "xok" which is pronounced "shok". Though there are speculations of sailors and fishermen in the 1400s and 1500s using the word "sharke" to describe certain marine creatures and fish.
