Etymology

**Secousse** is a feminine noun derived from the verb **secouer** “to shake”. The verb comes from Old French *secoier* (13th c.) which in turn originates in Latin **squere** or **scō** meaning “to shake, break”, from the Proto‑Indo‑European root *skʷe- “to shake”. The noun was formed by adding the feminine suffix –e, and its sense of a violent, sudden motion such as an earthquake or explosion has remained unchanged since the Middle Ages.
