This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium.
Particularly: “The above etymon is anachronistic since we define Middle English as ending in 1500 and Dutch as starting in 1500. Either it's from an earlier form of Dutch, or this is supposed to be a cognate rather than ancestor.”
