köken: From Old Norse hvískra, from Proto-Germanic *hwīskrōną, a variant of *hwistlōną (in Danish hvisle, Old Norse hvísla, English whistle), *hwisprōną (in English whisper, German wispern), and *hwisplōną (in German wispeln).
Etimoloji
17th century, from Low German wispern, chiefly displacing the above variant, from Middle High German and Middle Low German wispelen, ultimately of imitative origin (lautmalend). The r-form could be a late alteration, but could also be old in view of Old English hwisprian, whence English whisper.
