† scorbuten.

Forms: Also scorbut.

Etymology: < French scorbut, whence Spanish escorbuto, Portuguese escorbut, scorbuto, Italian scorbuto, modern Latin scorbūtus (whence German scorbut). The French word is apparently < Middle Low German schorbûk, early modern Dutch schorbuyck, scheurbuik (now scheurbuik), whence German scharbock, Danish skørbug, Middle Swedish skörbiug (Swedish skörbjugg), Old Icelandic (14th cent.) skyrbjúg-r. If the word be originally Low German or Dutch, and not an adoption from some foreign source, the etymological sense must be ‘disease that ruptures or lacerates the belly’ (Middle Low German, Middle Dutch schoren, Dutch scheuren to break, lacerate, Middle Low German bûk, Dutch buik belly). Compare early modern Dutch scheurmond (mond = mouth) scurvy of the gums, scheurbeen (been = bone) scorbutic affection of the bones.
