Puke is a very casual, blunt word for vomiting — throwing up. It's the kind of word kids use freely, but it can sound a little rude or crude in polite or formal situations, where people would say "vomit" or "be sick" instead. You'll hear it both as a verb ("I think I'm going to puke") and a noun ("there's puke on the floor").
(俗)吐;嘔吐物
