Borrowed from German Dirndl, a diminutive of Dirne (“girl”) (Austria, Bavaria), from Middle High German dierne (“girl; servant”), from Old High German diorna, thiorna (“girl; servant”), from Proto-West Germanic *þewernā (“maiden, young girl; female servant, handmaid”), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *tekʷ- (“to flow; to run”).
