Etymologie (Englisch)

Geerbt von Mittelenglisch: toten

Geerbt von Altenglisch: tōtian

Geerbt von Mittelenglisch: touten

Geerbt von Altenglisch: *tūtian

Verwandt mit Altenglisch: tȳtan

In summary

From Middle English touten (“to jut out, protrude, gaze upon, observe, peer”), from Old English *tūtian (“to be sticking out, protrude”), related to Old English tȳtan (“to stand out, be conspicuous, shine”), ultimately from Proto-Germanic *tut(t)- (“to stick out, project”). Compare Icelandic túta (“a teat-like prominence”), tútna (“to be blown up”). Possibly influenced by dialectal toot (“to stick out; project; peer out; peep”), from Middle English toten, totien, from Old English tōtian (“to peep out; look; pry; spectate”). Compare also Old English tot, ġetot (“pomp, splendour, vainglory”).
