ETYMOLOGY: Contrary to other four letter words, turd's true origin is not Anglo-Saxon; it comes from the old English tord , itself derived from an Indo-European root meaning to tear or split. According to Jonathan Green, Slang Down the Ages , turd acquired its pejorative sense around 1250. By the 18 ^th century the word had reached taboo status. This explains why Francis Grose, in his Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue (1811), listed that word as t--d between tup and turf.
