[edit]From Old Swedish stirder, styrdher, from Old Norse stirðr, from Proto-Germanic *sterþjaz,, from Proto-Indo-European *ster (“strong, steady”).[1]
The sound change of Old Norse /rð/ to /l/ is originally dialectal, but in this word has entered the standard language. Compare hin håle and utböling (from ON. *hinn harði and *útbyrðing respectively)
