Этимология (Английский)

Унаследовано от средненидерландский: gifte

Унаследовано от Old Dutch: *gift

Заимствовано из немецкий: Gift

In summary

From Middle Dutch gifte, from Old Dutch *gift, from Proto-West Germanic *gifti, from Proto-Germanic *giftiz. Equivalent to geven (“to give”) + -t (“verbal noun”).
The words gif and vergif, both meaning “poison”, derive from the same source as gift. The sense “poison” may have originated as a shortening of vergift or may have been borrowed from German Gift.
