TRICK

What trick means

A clever or skillful action designed to deceive someone or produce a surprising effect, or a particular technique used to accomplish something difficult.

Where the word comes from

From Old French *trique*, meaning a cheating device or deception, possibly from a Germanic source related to Old Norse *trickr*, meaning deceit.

The connection to Germanic roots suggests influence from Scandinavian settlers in medieval England.
