This is related to Old Norse krkr and Middle Dutch croec.Over time, "crook" evolved to mean anything bent or curved (e.g., a shepherds crook). By the 13th century, it also took on a figurative sense of "dishonest person" or "criminal," likely derived from the idea of someone morally "bent" rather than straight or upright.Let me know how you fared with your Wordle today on Twitter, Instagram or Facebook.
