Etymology: Old English þicg(e)an , þeah , þáh- , þǽgon , þegen to take, especially as food; also as a weak verb, past tense þig(e)de . Middle English thigge , < Old Norse þiggja , þá- , þǫ́gum , þágum , þegen to receive (Swedish tigga , Danish tigge to beg); compare Old Saxon thiggian to beg, Old High German dikken , etc. (Middle High German digen ) to beg; < Old Germanic *þigjan (with j suffix as in *ligjan lie v.1, *sitjan sit v.), < root *þig-: þag-: þǣg- < Indo-European *tegh: togh-: tēgh. The Old English verb, which would have given thidge or perhaps thie , thy in modern English (compare lie v.1, say v.1), was lost a1150, and its place was taken in the north by the Norse form, with modification of sense.
Now Scottish.
