The structure is a dialectal pronunciation of "aught" (anything), with the vowel shifted from "aw" to "ow." It is used in British English, particularly in Northern England (especially Yorkshire, Lancashire, and Manchester), to mean anything or any thing. People typically say "I wouldn't do owt stupid" or "Is there owt in the fridge?" The term originated in Old English "awiht" (anything), preserved in Northern dialects, and remains a strong regional marker of the North of England, often paired with "nowt" (nothing), as in "You can't get owt for nowt" (you can't get anything for nothing).
