To push, thrust, or shove roughly, particularly in Scottish or dialectal English; to dash or move quickly.
From Scottish dialect, possibly related to 'dash' or Germanic roots meaning 'to push.' The word appears in Scottish literature and dialect dictionaries from the 18th century onward.
Scottish English preserved this word that most English dialects lost—'dush' perfectly captures that quick, forceful motion and remained common in Scotland while disappearing from southern English.
