Etimologia (Anglès)

Uncertain. Some possibilities are presented below:
* From Vulgar Latin *exturpiāre, from Latin ex- (“throughout; thoroughly”) + turpis (“ugly; unsightly”) + -are (infinitive suffix); literally, “to [make someone look] ugly throughout”, “to [render someone] thoroughly unsightly” (by maiming etc.).
* From Vulgar Latin *sturpare, from Latin stuprare (“to defile; to rape”); if so, it would be a doublet of stuprare (“to rape”).
* From Vulgar Latin *disturpare, from Latin deturpare (“to disfigure”); a doublet of deturpare in this case.
