Etymology
From Proto-West Germanic *þrotā, *þrotu, from Proto-Germanic *þrutǭ, *þrutō (“throat, windpipe”), perhaps ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *ster- (“to be strong, ready, stiff”). Cognate with Old Frisian throt (“throat”), Old Saxon strota (“throat, gullet”), Old High German drozza (German Droß, Drossel), Old Norse þrútr (“snout, mouth”). See: Old Norse Nouns '
þrútr'.
