Where this word comes from
Inherited from Old Norse skot (“shot; projectile; shoot”), with the modern form influenced by Danish skud (“shot”), from Old Danish skut and skot. The Old Norse word is from Proto-Germanic *skutą (“shot”), related to *skeutaną (“to shoot”), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *(s)kewd- (“to shoot, chase”). Compare Norwegian Nynorsk skot, Swedish skott, Danish skud, English shot and German Schuss (“shot”).
