hut

Hut comes from Middle English hutte or hotte, shaped by both Old English hōd and Old English hȳdan ("to hide"), and reinforced by Anglo-Norman hute, from Middle French hutte, from Old French hute, ultimately from Old High German hutta, from Proto-Germanic *hudjǭ, tracing back to Proto-Indo-European *(s)kewt-, meaning "to cover" or "skin."

The word arrived in English through overlapping strands — one Germanic, one French — that both circled around the same idea of covering or hiding something small and enclosed.

It's related to hide, since both descend from the same root sense of covering or concealing.
