Etymology

1. c.1320, wrappen, of uncertain etymology, perhaps via Scand. (cf. Dan. dialectal vravle "to wind"), ult. from PIE *werp- "to turn, wind" (cf. Gk. rhaptein "to sew"), from base *wer- "to turn, bend" (see versus). The noun is first recorded c.1412; as a type of women's garment, recorded from 1827. Meaning "end of a filming session" is attested from 1974. Fig. phrase under wraps "in concealment" is recorded from 1939. Wrapper is recorded from c.1460.
2. From Middle English wrappen (“to wrap, fold”), of uncertain origin. Perhaps related to North Frisian wrappe (“to press into; stop up”), dialectal Danish vrappe (“to stuff, cram”), Middle Low German rincworpen (“to envelop, wrap”), Middle Low German wrempen (“to wrinkle, scrunch the face”), all perhaps tied to Proto-Indo-European *werp-, *werb- (“to turn, twist, bend”).
3. Compare also similar-sounding and similar-meaning Middle English wlappen (“to wrap, lap, envelop, fold”), Middle Dutch lappen (“to wrap up”), Old Italian goluppare (“to wrap”) (from Germanic). Doublet of lap; related to envelop, develop. Also compare Latin verber (“whip, lash”). See: Frisian, Northern 'wrappe', Danish 'vrappe'.
