Походження

From Middle English huske, husk (“husk”). Perhaps from Old English *husuc, *hosuc (“little

From Middle English huske, husk (“husk”). Perhaps from Old English *husuc, *hosuc (“little covering, sheath”), diminutive of hosu (“pod, shell, husk”), from Proto-West Germanic *hosā, from Proto-Germanic *husǭ (“covering, shell, leggings”), from Proto-Indo-European *kawəs- / kawes- (“cover”). If so, equivalent to hose + -ock.

Partly imitative, partly from Etymology 1, above, influenced by husky.
