pute

From English boot.

pute

1. shoe
2. boot

From Old French pute (nominative singular of putain) – perhaps from:

• a Vulgar Latin *pūtta, from a supposed Latin *puta (“girl”), female form of putus (“boy”) (a hapax legomenon of dubious reading)
• from the feminine form of put (“stinking, fetid”), from Latin pūtidus (“stinking”), therefore effectively inherited from Latin pūtida; this is the preferred etymology of the Trésor de la langue française informatisé

Cognate with puta in the Gallo-Romance and Ibero-Romance areas, as well as Old Italian putta (“girl”).
