Etimologia (Anglès)

From Middle High German vaschanc, vaschang, from a conflation of unattested Old High German *vastganc (“exuberant goings-on at a carnival”) (exact cognate of Old English fastgang (“fasting; Shrove Tuesday”)) and *vastschanc (“serving of the fasting drink, esp. before the start of Lent”) (from a component *vast related to Proto-Germanic *fastāną (“to observe, fast, abstain”) + Schank (“a giving”)), + a suffix -ing.
