Tomado de baixo alemán: Quene

Relativo a neerlandés: kween

In summary

From Low German Quene, from Middle Low German quēne (“old woman, hag”), from Old Saxon quena, from Proto-West Germanic *kwenā (“woman”).
The sense probably developed from “barren cow” (cf. Dutch kween, also attested in Low German dialects) via “calfless cow” to “young cow”. Doublet of Kone, which was inherited.
