Etymology

Found in Gallo-Latin, probably related to Proto-Celtic *wrigants f (“vermin”). Pokorny suggests Proto-Indo-European *wr̥mis (“worm”), but Matasović dismisses the similarity as "probably accidental" and instead suggests a non-Indo-European substrate. According to MacBain, from Proto-Indo-European *wreyḱ- (“to bend, twist”), similar to English wry. See: English Nouns 'wry'.
