Etymology

[edit]

Borrowed from Bulgarian дропла (dropla), from Proto-Slavic *dropъty, whose first part is probably from Proto-Indo-European *dreh₂- (run) and the other from Proto-Slavic *pъta (bird), which is probably based on Proto-Indo-European *put- (a young, a child, a little animal).[1][2]

Compare Czech drop, Polish drop and Russian дрофа (drofa). Cognate with German Trappe.
