Did you actually mean ortega or orthodox?

Samuel Johnson's Dictionary

  1. Ortsnoun

    seldom with a singular. Refuse; things left or thrown away.

    Etymology: This word is derived by Stephen Skinner from ort, German, the fourth part of any thing; by Mr. Edward Lye more reasonably from orda, Irish, a fragment. In Anglo Saxon, ord signifies the beginning; whence in some provinces odds and ends; for ords and ends signify remnants, scattered pieces, refuse; from ord thus used probably came ort.

    He must be taught, and train’d, and bid go forth;
    A barren-spirited fellow, one that feeds
    On abject orts and imitations. William Shakespeare, Jul. Cæs.

    The fractions of her faith, orts of her love,
    The fragments, scraps, the bits, and greasy reliques
    Of her o’er eaten faith, are bound to Diomede. William Shakespeare.

    Much good do’t you then;
    Brave plush and velvet men,
    Can feed on orts and safe in your stage-cloths,
    Dare quit, upon your oaths,
    The stagers, and the stage-wrights too. Ben Jonson.
