Etimologia (Inglese)

Ereditato da inglese medio: slouthe

Ereditato da inglese antico: slǣwþ

Affine scozzese: sleuth

In summary

From Middle English slouthe, slewthe (“laziness”), from Old English slǣwþ (“sloth, indolence, laziness, inertness, torpor”), from Proto-West Germanic *slaiwiþu, from Proto-Germanic *slaiwiþō (“slowness, lateness”), equivalent to slow + -th (abstract nominal suffix). Cognate with Scots sleuth (“sloth, slowness”).
