Where this word comes from

Ultimately from English lunch (“to eat lunch”). The verb may have been borrowed directly from the English verb, or formed within Norwegian from lunsj (“lunch”) with the verb-forming suffix -e (“verb-forming suffix”); the immediate formation is uncertain. The historical English-style spelling lunche occurs in older Norwegian writing, while lunsje is the current official form.
