gust

molt al gust borbònic

From Latin gustus, from Proto-Italic *gustus, from Proto-Indo-European *ǵéwstus. First attested in the 14th century, it was possibly a semi-learned word or early borrowing; compare the sound changes in the inherited Occitan gost, Portuguese gosto, and French goût.


gust

From Old Norse gustr, cognate with English gust.

2017 August 26, Anne Marie Roantree, Venus Wu, “Battered Hong Kong and Macau brace for Pakhar, more flooding”, in Andrew Hay, editor, Reuters, archived from the original on 2023-08-05, COMMODITIES NEWS:

they are merely driven about by every sudden gust and impulse of the mind

1609 (revised 1625), Francis Bacon, De Sapientia Veterum ('Wisdom of the Ancients')

The author is not speaking now of actual love-makings, of intrigues and devilish villany, either perpetrated or imagined; but rather of those passing gusts of short-lived and unfounded suspicion to which, as to other accidents, very well-regulated families may occasionally be liable.

1869 May, Anthony Trollope, “Hard Words”, in He Knew He Was Right, volume I, London: Strahan and Company, […], →OCLC, page 73:

(by extension) Any rush or outburst (of water, emotion, etc.).

Apparently from an unrecorded Middle English *gust, from Old Norse gustr (“a gust, blast”), from Proto-Germanic *gustiz, from Proto-Indo-European *ǵʰew-. Cognate with Icelandic gustur (“gust of wind”). Related also to Old Norse gusa (“to gush forth”), Old High German gussa (“flood”), Middle English guschen (> English gush).
The English word was not recorded before Shakespeare.
