köken: Related to ruse. Perhaps from Proto-Germanic *hurskijaną (“to startle, drive”), from *hurskaz (“fast, rapid, quick”), from Proto-Indo-European *ḱers- (“to run, hurry”). Cognate with Old High German hurscan (“to speed, accelerate”), Old English horsc (“quick, quick-witted, clever”). Possibly cognate with rush. More at hurry.
Duden says the etymology is unsettled. Some etymologists, including Pfeifer and Wahrig, trace it back to English pace, but this association may be secondary. A relation with Dutch pezen (“to work hard; to run quickly”) is probable. This Dutch verb was attested as early as 1632 and is related to pees (“sinew”).
