Etymologia (Angielski)

Dziedziczone z średnioangielski: schrille

Dziedziczone z staroangielski: scill

Pokrewny z średnioangielski: skrīke

Pokrewny z angielski: shell

Pokrewny z staroangielski: scill

Pokrewny z islandzki: skella

In summary

From Late Middle English schrille, shirle, shrille (“of a sound: high-pitched, piercing; producing such a sound”), possibly from the earlier shil, schille (“loud, resounding; high-pitched”), from Old English scill (“sonorous sounding”), of Germanic origin and probably ultimately imitative.
The r in the word was introduced by analogy to Middle English skrīke, skrīken, scrēmen, possibly to avoid confusion with non-Anglian forms of schelle (modern English shell) where Old English scill (“sonorous sounding”) and scill (“shell”) existed.
The word is cognate with Icelandic skella (“crash, bang, slam”), Low German schrell (“sharp in taste or tone”).
