Rohkust

Rohkust is a term that appears sporadically in online writing but does not have a single, widely accepted meaning. Because no canonical definition exists, uses of rohkust are varied and highly dependent on context. In some discussions, rohkust is treated as a misspelling or variant of Rohkost, the German word for raw food. Rohkost describes a diet consisting of uncooked plant-based foods and is associated with health, vegetarian, or ecological movements; the spelling rohkust likely originates from phonetic variant spellings or transliteration.

In other contexts, rohkust appears as a proper noun, notably as the name of a fictional city or region in fan-created fiction or role-playing settings. When used this way, rohkust is presented as an invented locale with its own geography, history, and culture within a specific fictional universe. Because such usages come from user-generated content, they are not part of formal encyclopedic knowledge and vary by author.

Etymology and standard definitions thus remain uncertain. If rohkust is intended as a variant of Rohkost, it inherits the German roots roh- meaning raw and kost- meaning food; if intended as a place name, its origin depends on the creator.
