shrouding

/ˈʃɹaʊdɪŋ/ noun

A shroud (annular plate at the periphery of a water wheel, forming side of bucket).

Word Origin Shrouding comes from Old English scrūd 'garment' — a piece of cloth cut to wrap a body. The root is PIE *sker- 'to cut,' which also gives us shear, share (a cut portion), and short (something cut off). So shrouding is literally wrapping in a cut cloth, originally for burial, now for concealing anything.
