In the medieval period there were a huge number of different languages spoken in Europe, with a reasonable number of words beginning with the letter z.
In Anglo-Norman French the word zizanie meant the darnel or tare plant, a weed often found growing among crops. In the same language zucarin meant sugary.
In Middle High German the word zageheit meant cowardice; zal meant a number; zant meant a tooth; a zirke was a garland or circle of flowers; a zobel was an expensive gown lined with sable fur.
English at that time did not often use the letter z, but the Middle English word zephirus meant a west wind that blows in spring.
