Meaning & usage
sauerkraut (a dish made by fermenting finely chopped cabbage)
Where this word comes from
From Alsatian Alemannic German surkrut, Surkrut, Sürkrut (standard German Sauerkraut). The first part of the word was modified by folk etymology to French chou (“cabbage”). Since -croute (krut, German Kraut) is that part of the Germanic word that indeed means “cabbage”, the French form quite literally is “cabbage-cabbage”.
