Nguồn gốc từ

Verb from Middle English scornen, schornen, alteration of Old French escharnir, from *escarnire, from *skarnijan, possibly from Proto-Germanic *skeraną (to shear) (from Proto-Indo-European *(s)ker- (to cut)), or possibly related to *skarną (dung, filth) (from Proto-Indo-European *(s)ḱerd-, *(s)ḱer- (dung, manure, filth)). Noun from Old French escarn (cognate with escárnio, escarnio and scherno).
