Schrott
German edit
Etymology edit
From Ripuarian and Low Franconian Schrott (“scrap”), which is the same word as German Schrot (“groats”). The regional form is not, however, derived from Middle High German schrōt, but from a variant Middle High German schrāt, Middle Dutch *scraet (compare attested scrāden, an eastern variant of scrōden, whence modern Dutch schrooien).
