Etymology

From Middle English orte, from Old English *oreta (that which is left after eating, literally out-eat); for more, see Old English or-, English eat. Cognate with Middle Low German orte (refuse of food), Middle Dutch ooraete, ooreete, Low German ort (ort), Middle High German urez, German Uräß and also German Ort (quarter (of a thaler, etc)). As the term for a coin, probably borrowed from the central European languages which used it: German Ort (quarter (of a thaler)), Polish ort (coin), etc.
