Etimologia (Anglès)

Heretat de neerlandès mitjà: cote

In summary

From Middle Dutch cote, from Proto-Germanic *kutō-, related to *kautōn- (“knuckle”), of unknown ultimate origin, with no certain cognates outside of Germanic. However, compare kuil (“hole in the ground”) and keutel (“hard animal dropping”), though Kroonen considers comparisons with the latter a stretch.
