Etymology
Middle English throwen "to propel through the air, cause to fall, drive forcefully, turn on a lathe," going back to Old English þrāwan "to twist, wring, (intransitive) turn round, writhe, curl," going back to West Germanic *þrēan- (whence also Old Frisian drāia "to turn," Old Saxon thrāian "to cause to rotate, turn on a lathe," Middle Dutch draeyen "to turn," Old High German drâen "to turn, twist"), probably going back to Indo-European *treh1- "rub, bore," whence in Germanic "bore through with a turning motion, turn"
