Etymology of EPPES

The word "eppes" is derived from Middle English and comes from the Old English word "Ælfeppan", which means "elfepp". "Elfepp" is a compound of "elf", referring to a mythical creature often associated with magic and mischief, and "epp", meaning "excrement" or "dung". So, originally, "eppes" was used to refer to the droppings or excrement of elves. Over time, the meaning of the word shifted, and it came to be used more broadly to refer to any small, insignificant, or unpleasant object or thing.
