(Noun) success or failure apparently brought by chance rather than one's own actions; good fortune; a person's overall fortune in life; (Verb) informal — to luck out (North American) meaning to succeed by luck; British luck out meaning to run out of luck.
Origin
From Middle Dutch or Low German luk (fortune, happiness), related to Middle High German gelücke (fortune), from Proto-Germanic *luką. The word entered English in the 15th century, probably through the Low Countries trade connection. There is no Old English equivalent — luck is one of those words that arrived with continental trade.
