From Middle English but, butte (“goal, mark, butt of land”), from 古期英語 byt, bytt (“small piece of land”) and *butt (attested in diminutive buttuc (“end, small piece of land”) > English buttock), from Proto-Germanic *butaz, *buttaz (“end, piece”), from Proto-Indo-European *bʰudnó-, from Proto-Indo-European *bʰÀud-, *bʰÈd-, *bʰÀu- (“to beat, push”). Cognate with Norwegian butt (“stump, block”), Icelandic bútur (“piece, fragment”), Low German butt (“blunt, clumsy”). Influenced by Old French but, butte (“but, mark”), ultimately from the same Germanic source. Related to beat, boot.
