Sch   schërren,  scërran, whence  déchirer,  eschirer, ‘to tear to pieces,’ is borrowed.  ,, ‘notch,’ from scharte, , ‘an opening or indentation made by cutting, hewing, or fracture; notch, wound’;   schaard, ‘notch, potsherd.’ Allied to  schart, , ‘hewn to pieces, full of notches, wounded,’  scart,  sceard,  sherd,  skarðr, which were  da- (to-),  of. scharte, scartîsan, ‘skillet, pan,’ must, like their  corresponding forms, be kept apart from these cognates on account of their meaning, since they are derived from skardhâ (not from skarta), as is proved by  skvrada, skrada, ‘skillet, pan, hearth.’   ,, ‘worthless book, trash,’ only;  ‘waste book’; formed from  scartata, ‘refuse.’   ,, ‘to bow and scrape, be obsequious, fawn’; it is uncertain whether the word is derived from servant, ‘servant.’  ,, ‘shade, shadow,’ from the  schate,  (rarely ),  scato ( -awes), ; corresponding to  skadus,  sčeadu,  shade, shadow,  schaduw,  skado, ‘shadow.’ Perhaps  σκότος, ‘darkness,’ is allied;  scáth, scáil, ‘shadow,’ are, however, more closely akin. For another word for ‘shadow,’ see under.   ,, ‘treasure, store; sweetheart,’ from schaz ( -tzes),  scaz, ; its chief senses down to the 13th  are ‘money, property, wealth,’ and only later ‘valuables stored up’;  scaz, , is only ‘money, a definite coin.’   skatts, ‘coin, money,’  skattr, ‘tax, tribute,’  sčęatt, ‘a certain small coin, money, property,’  sket, ‘money, cattle,’  scat, ‘piece of money, property.’ The early history of the cognates is unfortunately too obscure; opinions are divided whether the  word shatta- is derived from  skotŭ, ‘cattle,’ or whether the latter comes from. The variation in meaning, ‘cattle’ and ‘money,’ is analogous to pecunia from pecus,  fee from  feoh, ‘cattle’ (see ); in bartering, cattle played the part of money. Yet we cannot prove that the meaning of  *skatta-, ‘money, coin,’ is ‘cattle.’ On the other land, the assump - tion that the word is  allied to  σχέδη, ‘board, tablet,’ is certainly not satisfactory on account of the meanings of the  words.   ,, ‘bundle or truss of straw, sheaf,’ from schoup ( -bes), , ‘bundle, truss of straw, wisp of straw,’  scoub, , ‘sheaf, truss of straw’;   schoof,  sčeáf,  sheaf,  skauf, ‘sheaf’; allied to. Hence is  ‘what is gathered together’; akin further to.  ,, ‘to shudder, shiver,’ only, from  schuddern;   schudden, ‘to quake, tremble’;  schudderen,  to shudder. is of a cognate stem, and, like the words of this class, is based on a root skud, ‘to be shaken’; allied to  scutisôn, ‘to shudder,’ scutisôd, ‘quaking, trembling.’ The assumption that  is connected, like, with  schûr is not warranted, because the  word does not mean ‘shudder.’ See. ,, ‘to look at, gaze,’ from schouwen,  scouwôn, ‘to see, look at, contemplate’;   scauwôn,  schouwen,  sceáwian, ‘to look at’ (whence  to show);  *skaggwôn is wanting, to this usskawjan, ‘to restore to consciousness.’ From the root skau, skū̆, ‘to see’ (see ), are also derived  skuggwa, , ‘mirror,’  scû-char, ‘mirror,’ further  scûwo,  scûa,  skugge, , ‘shadow’ (see ); also  skygna ( *skuggwinôn), ‘to spy,’ skyn,  and , ‘perceiving,’ skoða, ‘to spy.’ In the non- languages,  kavis, ‘sage, poet,’  cavere, ‘to beware,’  κοέω, ‘I mark,’  čują, čuti, ‘to be sensible of, feel, perceive,’ are also connected with the root skū̆, skau, or rather kū̆, kau.   (1.),, ‘penthouse, shed’; see.

 (2.),, ‘shower,’ from schûr,  scâr, , ‘storm, hail’;   skûr, , ‘weather, shower,’  schoer, ‘pouring rain,’  sčûr,  shower, and the   skúr;  only skura windis, ‘gale.’ Origin obscure.   ,, ‘shovel,’ from the  schûvel,  scûvala, , pointing to  *skûfla (skûbla). The forms of the other languages point to  *skŭbla, ;   schoffel,, ‘shovel,’  sčęofl, ,  shovel. Allied to the root
