Etymology 1
From Old Danish keed, possibly from Proto-Germanic *kaibaz (“crooked”), cf. Norwegian Nynorsk keiv (“wry, wrong, left”), keive (“left hand”), German Low German keef (“tired”). The adjective has forms with -w in Danish dialects of Jutland and Bornholm. Possibly the standard form kēð arose in the syntagm led og ked.
The adjective is derived from the verb *kībaną (“to quarrel”), cf. Danish kives, German keifen, and Dutch kijven.
Pronunciation
Adjective
ked (neuter ked, plural and definite singular attributive kede, comparative mere ked, superlative (predicative) mest ked, superlative (attributive) mest kede)
Usage notes
- In the modern language almost exclusively construed with the preposition af (“of”) and either the pronoun det (“it”), as in the set phrase Jeg er ked af det ("I'm sorry"), or a subclause. There is also the substandard derivation ked-af-det-hed (“sadness”)).
