Demut

Etymology
From, , , from southern (ca. 800), from  + , thus literally “serf-mindedness”. The word spread from Upper German during Middle High German times, gradually displacing the northern (compare 🇨🇬). Northern sources almost invariably show -e- instead of -ie-, but this form also appears in the south and must thus be considered an internal, irregular development. 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬 are both late (15th c.) borrowings from High German.

Noun
