Etymology[edit]

Etymology: for some reason I connect this with "porridge" etymologically--I have no source for this other than instinct and visual connection.2601:648:8580:E4:8917:3556:848B:5140 16:48, 3 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

Chambers uncertainly links it with Old French parjeter, related to jeter (to throw). Equinox 17:55, 3 August 2016 (UTC)Reply
