Etymology

This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium.
Particularly: “Doesn't seem to be mentioned by STEDT or Luce 1981. Though MED groups all senses together, it is unclear if they are all related, given their wide semantic range - this also makes etymological analysis difficult (which is the original sense, if they're all connected?)”
