Du. form whence the Scotch word was borrowed.
I write this article in order to note that this very form, but slightly disguised as mudseken, appears in Kilian and Hexham; but is easily overlooked, owing to this inferior spelling with d for /. Hexham has : ' een Mudseken, the Halfe pint of paris Measure ; that is, sixeteene ounces ; our halfe common Pinte, called in dutch Vperken! Elsewhere he gives, somewhat inconsistently, ' een Uperken, a measure of a quarter of a Pint.' This last word appear...s to be obsolete. [99.] Myrtle; see p. 170, s.v. Iiistre.
Nautch, a kind of ballet-dance by women. (Hind. — Prakrit — Skt.) From the Hind, (and Mahr'atti) ndch, a dance; from the Prakrit nachcha, the same. This is from the Skt. nrtya, dancing, acting ; orig. fut. pass. part, of nrt, to dance, act. See Yule. Hence the deriv. nautch-girl, a dancing-girl ; cf. Skt. «ar/a^z, a female dancer.
