Nguồn gốc từ
From Middle English guerdon, guerdoun, gardone, from Old French guerdon, guerredon, guarredon, werdon, from widerdōnum, alteration of widerlōnum, from West Germanic (whence widarlon widarlōn, wiþerlēan), literally ‘back-payment’, with the second element assimilated to Latin dōnum (gift).
