Dutch[edit]

Etymology[edit]

Attested as Tente in the 16th century. Likely derived from Middle Dutch tinte (tent, temporary shelter). Proposed derivations from Medieval Latin tincta (tincture, paint) (as a reference to madder production) or Middle Dutch tinte (notched lower section of an arrow) (as a reference to shape of the polder the village is located in) are significantly less likely.

See also Zealandic De Tinte.
