==English==

===Etymology===
From {{inh|en|enm|cutten}}, {{m|enm|kitten}}, {{m|enm|kytten}}, {{m|enm|ketten|t=to cut}} (compare {{cog|sco|kut}}, {{m|sco|kit|t=to cut}}), of {{der|en|gmq}} origin, from {{der|en|non|*kytja}}, {{m|non|*kutta}}, from {{der|en|gem-pro|*kutjaną}}, {{m|gem-pro|*kuttaną|t=to cut}}, of uncertain origin, perhaps related to {{der|en|gem-pro|*kwetwą|t=meat, flesh}} (compare {{cog|non|kvett|t=meat}}). Akin to Middle {{cog|sv|kotta|t=to cut or carve with a knife}} (compare dialectal {{cog|sv|kåta}}, {{m|sv|kuta|t=to cut or chip with a knife}}, {{cog|sv|kuta}}, {{m|sv|kytti|t=a knife}}), {{cog|nb|kutte|t=to cut}}, {{cog|nn|kutte|t=to cut}}, {{cog|is|kuta|t=to cut with a knife}}, {{cog|non|kuti|t=small knife}}, {{cog|no|kyttel}}, {{m|no|kytel}}, {{m|no|kjutul|t=pointed slip of wood used to strip bark}}. Displaced native {{noncog|enm|snithen}} (from {{noncog|ang|snīþan}}; compare {{noncog|de|schneiden}}), which still survives in some dialects as {{m|en|snithe}} or {{m|en|snead}}. See {{m|en|snide}}. Adjective sense of "drunk" (now rare and now usually used in the originally jocular derivative form of ''[[half cut|half-cut]]'') dates from the 17th century, from ''cut in the leg'', ''to have cut your leg'', euphemism for being very drunk.
