Meaning & usage
shack, hut
Where this word comes from
From Middle French cahut(t)e, from Old French quahute, chahute (13th c.). Further origin unknown. The main question is whether Middle Dutch kayhute (mid-15th c., modern kajuit) is from French or vice versa. However, the dating, non-initial stress, and lack of plausible Germanic derivations all point to French origin. In this case possibly from a confluence of Old Occitan cabane and Old French hute (modern hutte). Doublet of cajute, a (re-)borrowing from Dutch.
