"etymology_text": "Inherited from Middle French canard, from Old French canart, quanart (“duck”), from cane (“female duck\", also \"boat”), perhaps ultimately from the same imitative root as caner (“to cackle, prattle”) (although caner is attested later than canart) or from Old French cane (“boat, ship; waterbird”), from Frankish *kanō (“boat, floating vessel”), from Proto-Germanic *kanô (“boat, vessel”), from Proto-Indo-European *gan-, *gandʰ- (“vessel, tub”).\nCompare Norwegian kane (“swan-shaped vessel”), German Kahn (“boat”), Old Norse kæna (“little boat”), and possibly Old Norse knǫrr (“ship”) (whence also Late Latin canardus (“ship”), from Germanic; and Old English cnearr (“merchant ship”)).
