Nguồn gốc từ

From Middle English nasty, nasti, naxty, naxte (unclean, filthy), whence also Early Modern nasky, of origin. Probably from earlier Middle English *naskty, *naskedy, from Middle English *nasked (dirty, messy) + -y, ultimately of - origin (comparable to nasket, naskot, naskig, naskug (nasty, dirty, messy)), themselves all probably related to Proto-Germanic *hnaskuz (tender, soft). Likely nesh nosh.
