Waurika, Oklahoma

Waurika is a city in and county seat of Jefferson County, Oklahoma, United States.〔(【引用サイトリンク】accessdate=2011-06-07 )〕 The population was 2,064 at the 2010 census, a 3.8 percent increase from 1,988 at the 2000 census.〔(CensusViewer:Waurika, Oklahoma Population. Retrieved June 17, 2013. )〕
==City name==
The name is the anglicized version of the Comanche compound ''(unicode:woarɨhka)'' 'worm eater' from ''woa'' 'worm' + ''(unicode:tɨhka)'' 'eat' and presumably refers to a group of Comanche living in the area or to some early European settlers whose plowing may have humorously resembled digging for worms.〔William Bright. 2013. ''Native American Placenames of the Southwest'' (Univ. of Oklahoma Press)〕 Such humorous names were common in Comanche culture, such as the word for 'rice', ''(unicode:woarɨhkapɨh)'', literally 'worm food'.
