From trithing, from Middle English trithing, tridinge, from Old English *þriðing, from Old Norse þriðjungr (“third part”). The folk etymology that connects the term to the area a horse-rider could cover in a single day is incorrect, but may have influenced the spelling and pronunciation. Cognate with English trithing.
