語源
英語の原文（Wiktionary）
Inherited from Middle English trouthe, from Old English trēowþ, from Proto-Germanic *triwwiþō, from *triwwiz + *-iþō. By surface analysis, true + -th. Doublet of troth. Cognate with Norwegian trygd (“trustworthiness, security, insurance”), Icelandic tryggð (“loyalty, fidelity”).
