German[edit]

Etymology[edit]

From Middle High German trotten (late 14th c.), from Old French trotter, troter (to trot). The French verb is possibly from Old High German trotōn (to press wine) or from a hypothetical Frankish *trottōn (to tread), both related with German treten. An alternative theory derives it from Latin tolutim (trottingly). See French trotter and English trot for more.
