tunker
It appears that "tunker" pertaining to a sect of German origin in the United States who practice simple living and emphasize holy living does not exist. The term could possibly be a misspelling or misuse of the word "Dunker" or "Tunker". The Dunkers, also known as German Baptist Brethren, are a direct offshoot of the Radical Pietist Movement of the 17th and 18th centuries in Germany. They emphasize pacifism, simplicity, and a literal interpretation of the Bible. They are known to practice trine immersion, which is a form of baptism where the person is immersed three times, symbolizing the Holy Trinity. If it's a colloquial term, a slang, or a regional dialect, it could have a different meaning based on the context or geography. Please provide further information for a more accurate definition. Consult published resources or trusted persons for the meaning of such terms.
