"Gerücht" meaning in German

See Gerücht in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ɡəˈʁʏçt/ Audio: De-Gerücht.ogg
Etymology: From Middle High German gerüchte (Central German), borrowed from Middle Low German geruchte, gerüchte. This northern form replaced earlier Middle High German geruofte, gerüefte, from Old High German geruofti. The noun pertains to the verb rufen (“to call”) (Old High German ruofan, Old Saxon hrōpan). The Low German form is based on the shift -ft- → -cht- (cf. Nichte); the same in Dutch gerucht. Popular etymology later associated the word with riechen (“to smell”).
