Etimologia (Inglese)

Affine tedesco antico alto: -

Preso in prestito da Middle Low German: ūster

Affine inglese antico: ostre

Affine francese antico: oistre

Affine francese: huître

In summary

Attested a few times in Old High German, but only much later effectively introduced via Middle Low German ūster, from Middle Dutch oester. The Dutch word is borrowed from Latin ostrea, itself from Ancient Greek ὄστρεον (óstreon) (pertaining to ὀστέον (ostéon, “bone”), ὄστρακον (óstrakon, “shell”)). Compare Old English ostre, Old French oistre (modern French huître).
