Etimologija (anglų kalba)

From Middle High German schrecken, from Old High German skreckōn (“to jump”), from Proto-Germanic *skrikkōną; the ultimate origin is uncertain, possibly related to *skeraną (“to shear”) or *skrīaną (“to scream”). Also compare Old Norse skaga (“to jut out”).
Cognate with Dutch schrikken (“to be startled”), English screech, English shriek, English shrike. Danish skrække and Swedish skräcka are borrowed from German. In Middle High German, the verb was reinterpreted as a causative, whereas the intransitive sense acquired a strong inflection, cf. erschrecken.
