Etymology

From Old Norse lortr, cognate with Faroese lortur ‎(“excrement, feces”), Danish lort ‎(“feces”). Perhaps from or related to Proto-Germanic *lurtaz ‎(“left; left-handed; crooked; bent; warped; underhanded; deceitful; limping”), from Proto-Indo-European *lerd- ‎(“to bend; arch; crook”). If so, then related also to Old English lort ‎(“crooked”), Middle High German lurz, lerz ‎(“left; left-handed”). More at lirt.
