Nguồn gốc từ
. Compare regional piddlen, pitteln, pütteln, pühteln (to pick at something, pick at one's food), dialectal Pitzel. Alternatively, perhaps originally from paw or put + -le. In later use, a euphemistic diminutive of piss, though not directly related to it. The noun derives from the verb.
