Dutch

Etymology

From maken +‎ -elen, although the existence of a Middle Dutch *makelen is strongly suggested by the compound makelgelt. Although seemingly derived from this verb, makelaar (attested already in Middle Dutch) is thought to be borrowed and likely gave rise to this verb rather than the other way around.
