Etymology
In summary
From Middle High German hürde, genitive/dative of hurt, from Old High German hurd (“wickerwork”), from Proto-West Germanic *hurdi, *hurþi. The Old High German form (along with Old Saxon hurth) requires *þ. The byform hurt may have underlying *d, unless it is due to final devoicing (which is at any rate the case in Middle High German). The sports sense (late 19th c.) is a calque of English hurdle (since 1830s).
