Where this word comes from
From Middle Dutch sprockelen, a derivation from Middle Dutch sproc (“twig, faggot”) (whence sporkehout (“alder buckthorn”) and sprok (“brittle, fragile”)), with the frequentative verbal suffix -elen. Alternatively analyzable as sprokkel + -en, but Middle Dutch sprockel is attested more sparsely and later than sproc and sprockelen, so it may actually be a back-formation from this verb.
