Nguồn gốc từ

From Middle French scandale (indignation caused by misconduct or defamatory speech), from scandalum (that on which one trips, cause of offense), from Ancient Greek σκάνδαλον (a trap laid for an enemy, a cause of moral stumbling), from Proto-Indo-European *skand- (to jump). Cognate with scandō to climb. First attested from escandle, but the modern word is a reborrowing.
