/ˈskɒləp//ˈskæləp/The word "scallop" has a fascinating history! It originates from the Old French word "eschalope," which is derived from the Latin term "scallopia," meaning "to scallop" or "to shell." This Latin term is believed to be related to the Greek word "skalpellos," meaning "having scales." This refers to the shell of the scallop mollusk, which has a distinctive fan-shaped design resembling scales. In English, the word "scallop" has been in use since the 14th century, initially referring to the edible mollusk itself. Over time, the term has also come to describe the fan-shaped shell, as well as the motion of scooping or curling, as in a scallop-edged curl of hair.
