Etymology
Inherited from Middle French escot, from Old French escot, escoz (“payment”), from Old Frankish *skot (“tax”, literally “that which is thrown in”), from Proto-Germanic *skutą (“that which is thrown, shot, projectile, bullet, missile”). Cognate with Old High German scoz (“bullet, missile, projectile, javelin, shot”), Old English scot, sceot (“shot, lot, payment”). More at scot. See: Old English Nouns '
scot'.
