hurt

hurt
{{11}}hurt (n.) c.1200, "a wound, an injury;" also "sorrow, lovesickness," from HURT (Cf. hurt) (v.).
{{12}}hurt (v.) c.1200, "to injure, wound" (the body, feelings, reputation, etc.), also "to stumble (into), bump into; charge against, rush, crash into; knock (things) together," from O.Fr. hurter "to ram, strike, collide," perhaps from Frankish *hurt "ram" (Cf. M.H.G. hurten "run at, collide," O.N. hrutr "ram"). The English usage is as old as the French, and perhaps there was a native O.E. *hyrtan, but it has not been recorded. Meaning "to be a source of pain" (of a body part) is from 1850. To hurt (one's) feelings attested by 1779. Sense of "knock" died out 17c., but Cf. HURTLE (Cf. hurtle). Other Germanic languages tend to use their form of English SCATHE (Cf. scathe) in this sense (Cf. Dan. skade, Swed. skada, Ger. schaden, Du. schaden).
