Etymology of BESK

The word "besk" has its origins in the Danish language. It comes from the Old Norse word "biskup", which means "bishop". The term "biskup" was borrowed from Old English "bisc(e)op" or Old High German "bisc(h)of", ultimately derived from the Latin "episcopus", meaning "overseer" or "bishop". Over time, "besk" evolved in Danish to refer to a specific type of alcoholic beverage, now known as "besk", which is a bitter liquor made from a variety of herbs.
