"etymology_text": "Noun usage possibly from the adjective scurvy influenced by or a variant of scurfy. Took on meaning of Dutch scheurbuik, French scorbut (“scurvy”), possibly from Old Norse skyrbjúgr, skyr (“sour milk”) + bjúgr (“swelling, tumour”), from the verb bjúga (“to bend”), whence Icelandic skyrbjúgur (“scurvy”) and Swedish skörbjugg (“scurvy”).\nCompare German Scharbock, Late Latin scorbutus. More at sour, bow.\nOr, equivalent to scurf (“flakes on the surface of the skin”) + -y.",
