Nguồn gốc từ

ine-pro From Middle English schold, scholde, from Old English sċeald (shallow), perhaps from Proto-Germanic *skalidaz, past participle of *skaljaną (to go dry, dry up, become shallow), from *skalaz (parched, shallow), from Proto-Indo-European *(s)kelh₁- (to dry out). Cognate with Scholl, schal. Compare shallow.
