"Schanze" meaning in German

See Schanze in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈʃantsə/ Audio: De-Schanze.ogg
Rhymes: -antsə Etymology: Of uncertain origin. Attested since the 15th century. Several etymologies have been proposed. Pfeifer suggests the regional Franconian/Hessian term Schanze (“basket”) (itself of unknown origin) as the origin, arguing that entrenchments resemble baskets from the inside, being dug-out earth pits that have been reinforced from the inside with brushwood. He rejects a derivation from Italian scansi (noun), plural of scanso, claiming that such theories are based on an unverifiable meaning of “defense”/“resistance” of the Italian term. See also Dutch schans, Danish skanse, Swedish skans and English sconce.
