"etymology_text": "From Middle High German kopf (“drinking vessel”), from Old High German kopf, chopf, kupf (“mug, bowl, head”), from Proto-West Germanic *kopp, from Proto-Germanic *kuppaz (“round object, bowl, crown of the head”), from Proto-Indo-European *gew- (“to turn, bend, arch, curve”).\nCognate with German Low German Kopp (“head”), Dutch kop (“head”), Saterland Frisian Kop (“head”), Yiddish קאָפּ (kop, “head”), English cop (“the crown (of the head); the head”).\nAlternatively, from or influenced by Late Latin cuppa, probably a form of Latin cūpa (“tub”) from Proto-Indo-European *kewp- (“a hollow”), related to English cup, although the form and gender make this derivation less likely.",
