köken: From gauchir (“to bend, dodge, warp”), a conflation of Old French gauchier (“to tread”) (from Frankish *walkijan, *walkan, cognate with English walk) + Old French guenchir (“to deviate”) (from Frankish *wenkijan (“to sway, falter”)). Gauche replaced the original Latin-derived word for "left", senestre, in the sixteenth century. Compare Walloon gåtche.

köken: From Proto-Indo-European *(s)ker- (“to turn, to bend”), changed to *krei- (whence also kreilis (“left-hander”)), with a suffix -so. The meaning evolved from “bent, crooked” to “not strong, clumsy, weaker, less good,” hence “left (hand),” as opposed to the “good,” “able” right hand. Cognates include Old Prussian crays (“hay”), craysi (“stalk, straw”) (presumably from “that which bends, rocks”).
