Etymology
First attested in the Vindolanda Tablets.[1] Before this was discovered, the Romance forms were assumed to have derived from Latin tŏrta f (“twisted”), which is also found as a noun in Late Latin (referring to a type of pastry). That this required assuming an unusual development of Latin ŏ was recognized even then.[2]
