Alternative forms edit
- kurt (other dialects of Ripuarian)
- kurz, korz (Moselle Franconian)
Etymology edit
From Middle High German kurz, from Old High German kurt, from Proto-West Germanic *kurt, from Latin curtus.
The word was borrowed around the time when the High German consonant shift ceased to be active, which explains the Old High German doublets kurt and kurz. The fact that within Central Franconian the t-sound is northern, may imply that it has been reinforced by Low Franconian and Low German influence.
Pronunciation edit
Adjective edit
koot (masculine koote, feminine and plural koote or koot, comparative kööter, superlative et köötste)
Dutch edit
Etymology edit
From Middle Dutch cote, from Proto-Germanic *kutō-, related to *kautōn- (“knuckle”), of unknown ultimate origin, with no certain cognates outside of Germanic. However, compare kuil (“pothole”) and keutel (“hard animal droppings”), though Kroonen considers comparisons with the latter a stretch.[1]
