Nguồn gốc từ

From Middle English harsk, harisk(e), hask(e), herris. Century derived the term from Old Norse harskr (whence harsk rancid, dialectal hersk, härsk, härsken); the Middle English Dictionary derives it from that and harsch (rough) (whence also harsch), from haer (hair), from hār, from *hār; the Oxford Dictionary of English derives it from Middle Low German alone.
