Where this word comes from
From verdighet (“dignity, rank”), with the first element modelled after German Kur (“election”), as in kurfyrste (“prince-elector”). Compare German Kurwürde (“electoral dignity”). German Kur is from Middle High German kür (“choice, election”), ultimately from Proto-West Germanic *kuʀi (“choice, decision”), from Proto-Indo-European *ǵews- (“to test, taste, choose”). verdighet is verdig (“worthy, dignified”) + -het (“noun-forming suffix”). Compare the parallel formations Danish kurværdighed, Swedish kurvärdighet and German Kurwürde (“electoral dignity”).
