Where this word comes from

Inherited from Middle French tricher, from Old French tricher, trichier (“to defraud, conceal, cheat”), of disputed origin. Possibly from Vulgar Latin *triccāre, from Late Latin tricāre, from Latin trīcārī (“dodge, shun, look for detours; quibble, haggle”), from trīcae. Compare Italian treccare, Old Occitan trichar, Catalan and Occitan trigar, Portuguese trigar. Alternatively possibly of Germanic origin, from Middle High German trechen (as in zuotrechen (“to obtain falsely or deceitfully, wangle, finagle”)); compare also Middle Dutch treck, trec (“stratagem, ruse, guile, trick, sleight”), English trick. More at trick.
