Etymology[уреди]

From Средњи Енглески scribe, from Стари Француски scribe (“scribe”), from Рани Латински usage of scriba (“secretary”) (used in Vulgate to render Ancient Greek γραμματεύς (grammateús, “scribe, secretary”), which had been used in its turn to render the Hebrew סופר‎ (“writer, scholar”)) from scribere (“to write, draw, draw up, draft (a paper), enlist, enroll, levy; orig. to scratch”), probably akin to scrobs (“a ditch, trench, grave”).
