Morphology

fuckton + of

The expression is compositionally an intensifier ('fuck' used as a strong expletive intensifier) combined with a measure noun ('ton' = a large amount), so a learner who knows those constituents can plausibly infer ‘a very large amount’. However, the fused slang form 'fuckton' is highly colloquial/vulgar and non-standard, and many B1 learners may not recognize the slangy fusion or register, so the predictability is partial rather than full.

Etymology

The slang fuckton of is a rude way to say a huge amount. It puts the swear fuck before ton, a word for a very heavy weight, to make the size feel extreme, so it means 'a very large amount'.
