burcht

Dutch

Alternative forms

burg (now chiefly in names)

Etymology

From Middle Dutch burch, from Old Dutch *burg, from Proto-West Germanic *burg, from Proto-Germanic *burgz, from Proto-Indo-European *bʰerǵʰ- (“fortified elevation”). The final -t is seemingly random, but not unheard of; such "paragogic" extensions occur occasionally in Dutch following a fricative or liquid word-final consonant. Compare for example hulst, kroost, rijst and arend.

Cognate with German Burg, English borough, -bury, burrow, Danish borg.

For sense two, compare English burrow.
