- O.E. ceorl "peasant, freeman," from P.Gmc. *kerlaz, *karlaz. It had various meaning in early M.E., including "man of the common people," "a country man," "husbandman," "free peasant;" by 1300, it meant "bondman, villain," also "fellow of low birth or rude manners." For acquisition of an insulting flavor over time, compare boor, villain.
