Etimoloji (İngilizce)

Ortaçağ Felemenkçesi öğesinden devralındı: kove

Old Dutch öğesinden devralındı: *kovo

Almanca ile aynı kökten türemiştir: Kobold

In summary

Possibly already from Middle Dutch. Equivalent to a compound of koof (from Middle Dutch kove, from Old Dutch *kovo, from Proto-Germanic *kubô (“hut, shed”)) and a less certain second element that might be hou (“friendly, favorable disposition”). Related to German Kobold. For sense 2, compare with English brownie/Brownie (“a junior Girl Scout, a junior Girl Guide”).
