Etymology

[edit]

    From Proto-Germanic *þreskaną, whence also Old High German dreskan (German dreschen), Dutch dorsen, Old Norse þreskja (Danish tærske), Gothic 𐌸𐍂𐌹𐍃𐌺𐌰𐌽 (þriskan). Liquid metathesis had occurred in this verb. However, it was its unmetathesized form that survived into modern English.
