Etimologia (Inglese)

Affine norvegese nynorsk: tvirla

Affine tedesco antico alto: dweran

Affine tedesco: zwirlen

Affine olandese: dwarrelen

Affine islandese: þyrill

In summary

Of Scandinavian origin, akin to Norwegian Nynorsk tvirla, Old High German dweran (German zwirlen, quirlen), Dutch dwarrelen and Icelandic þyrill; all from Proto-Germanic *þwirilaz (“stirring-stick, whisk”), *þweraną (“to stir”). Or, an alteration of tirl (“to twist”), with influence from whirl.
