'Boke' is a word of Scottish origins, Ulster Scots takes its origins mainly from scotland. It is not a slang word because it is used in every day life as the meaning 'to vomit' and is in the Ulster scots language. It does not take origins from Ireland but Scotland.

“If a Papist should speak to you

In his old Fenian tongue

He will speak of our friendship

Why can’t we be one?

Just you point to the red hand

Topped by the Queen’s Crown

And say We’re side-by-side with Scotland

And they won’t let us down.”

Since ancient times the peoples of Scotland and Ulster have shared close bonds of language and culture, as this Loyalist song “Wee Spot in Europe” points out.
