Etymologie (Englisch)

Geerbt von Mittelenglisch: gerle

Geerbt von Altenglisch: *gyrele

In summary

From Middle English gerle, girle, gyrle (“young person (boy or girl)”), perhaps from Old English *gyrele, from Proto-West Germanic *gurilā, from a zero-grade diminutive of *gaurā (“young child”) + *-ilā. Ultimately of unknown origin. Doublet of gal/gyal and gyaru.
