Etimologia (Anglès)

Heretat de alt alemany mitjà: schirlinc

Heretat de alt alemany antic: skerling

Cognat amb neerlandès: scheerling

Cognat amb anglès: sharn

In summary

From Middle High German schirlinc, with irregular raising from older scherlinc, from Old High German skerling, itself with dissimilation from older skerning. Cognate with Dutch scheerling. Derived from Proto-Germanic *skarną (“dung”) due to the plant’s preferred habitat. Compare dialectal English sharn.
