Etimoloxía (Inglés)

Herdado de Middle High German: gehüfte

Relativo a Middle Low German: gehüchte

Relativo a neerlandés: gehucht

In summary

From Middle High German gehüfte, so attested 1309 in Königsdorf near Cologne; later also in East Central German gehoffte (and variants). Collective formation from Hof (“yard, farmyard, farm”). Regarding the Dutch colonisation in the east, it is possible that the German word goes back to Middle Dutch, in which ghehuchte, ghehochte, from Old Dutch *gihufti, is older and commoner. Plausibly the same is also true of rare Middle Low German gehüchte. Compare modern Dutch gehucht (“hamlet”).
