Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: kirk n., scot n.2; kirk n., scot n.2, shot n.1
Etymology: Originally (in quot. a1200 at α. ) < kirk n. + scot n.2, as alteration of churchset n. In later use (in α. and β. forms) < kirk n. + respectively scot n.2 and shot n.1, in both cases probably after church scot n. (compare α and β forms at that entry), with kirk n. intended as an archaizing rather than a regional form.
