Is “zoinks!” an actual exclamation, or is it just a nonsense word made up by the Scooby Doo writers?

  1. as far as i know, it originated from scooby doo. i’ve never heard anyone use it in real life.

  2. According to wiktionary, it was created for the show. I assume it was meant to sound like “zounds” or “cripes”

  3. Zoinks is an actual exclamation that started as a nonsense word made up by the Scooby Doo writers.
