different between quisling vs traitora
quisling
English
Etymology
Named after Norwegian military officer Vidkun Quisling (1887–1945), who ruled the Nazi collaborationist government of Norway during World War Two. From Quislinus, Latinization of Quislin, based on the Danish place name Kvislemark.
The name is seemingly supposed to mean "one who is from Kvislemark", and is equivalent to Kvislemark +? -ing (suffix designating a person of a certain origin or with certain qualities). Kvislemark is composed of Danish kvissel (“cleft branch”) +? mark (compare Danmark). kvissel itself is a derivative of Old Norse kvísl (“fork [as in a 'fork in the road']”), which ultimately comes (by dissimilation) from Proto-Germanic *tw?sil?. Cognates include Old English twisla (“confluence, junction, fork of a river or road”) and Old High German zwisila (“forked implement, twig, branch”).
Ultimately related to English twistle, twissel, and twizzle.
