Etymology
This etymology is incomplete. You can help Wiktionary by elaborating on the origins of this term. Derivation from Proto-Germanic *kweþuz (“abdomen, belly”) (compare Old Norse kviðr (“abdomen, belly”) and Gothic 𐌵𐌹𐌸𐌿𐍃 (qiþus, “womb”) is unlikely. Probably kut is cognate with kuit (“spawn”) and kont (“ass”). Also Old Dutch quintuc (“genitals of a female dog”) [8th century] might be related.[1][2]
