# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Bruch

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Bruch. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Bruch (1.), masculine, ‘breach, rupture, crack,’ from Middle High German bruch, Old High German bruh, masculine; formed by gradation from brechen.
Bruch (2.), masculine, neuter, ‘damp meadow, marsh, bog,’ a Franconian-Saxon word from Middle High German bruoch, Old High German bruoh(hh), neuter masculine, ‘marshy soil, swamp’; compare Low German brôk, Dutch broek, ‘marsh-land,’ Anglo-Saxon brôk, ‘brook, current, river,’ English brook. Similarly Middle High German ouwe combines the meanings of ‘water-stream, watery land, island.’ It is possible that West Teutonic *broka- is allied to brechen, a supposition that has been put forward on account of the Anglo-Saxon meaning ‘torrent’; in that case the Old High German sense ‘swamp’ would be based upon ‘a place where water gushes out.’
Bruch (3.), feminine, neuter, ‘breeches,’ from MidHigh German bruoch, Old High German bruoh(hh), feminine, ‘breeches covering the hip and upper part of the thigh’ (akin to Anglo-Saxon brêc, English breech); compare the corresponding Anglo-Saxon brôc, plural brêc, English breeches, Middle Low German brôk, Dutch broek, Old Icelandic brók, ‘breeches.’ It has been asserted that the common. Teutonic brôk- has been borrowed from the equivalent Gallic-Latin brâca (likewise Romance, compare Italian brache, French braies); but Anglo-Saxon brêc, ‘rump,’ shows that Bruch contains a Teutonic stem; hence the Gallic-Latin word is more likely borrowed from Teutonic; compare Hemd.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Brunft

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Brunft. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Brunft, feminine, ‘rutting-time,’ from Middle High German brunft, feminine, ‘fire, heat, rutting season of deer, cry.’ The Middle High German brunft is of dual origin; in the sense of ‘heat’ it belongs to brennen, Brand. Brunft, ‘the rutting season of deer,’ was rightly connected, as early as Lessing, with brummen, since it “indicates the impulse of certain animals to copulation, that is to say, of those that roar or bellow in the act; ignorance and negligence have transformed this word into Brunft” (Lessing).
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Brunn

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Brunn. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Brunn, Brunnen, Born, masculine, ‘fountain, spring, well.’ The form with the metathesis of the r is Low German; the first two are based upon Middle High German brunne, masculine, ‘spring, spring-water, well’; Old High German brunno (beside which a form pfuzzi, ‘well,’ from Latin puteus, appears in Old High German; compare Pfütze). It is based upon an Old Teutonic word; Gothic brunna, ‘spring,’ Anglo-Saxon burna (for brunna), English bourn (‘brook’). Brunnen has been derived from brennen, for which a primary meaning ‘to heave, seethe’ (compare Middle High German Low German sôt, ‘well, draw-well’) is assumed without proof. Greek φρέαρ, ‘well,’ scarcely points to a root bhru, ‘to heave, bubble’ (cognate with brauen?); nn may be a suffix, as perhaps in Modern High German Sonne.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Brut

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Brut. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Brut, feminine, ‘brood, spawn, brats,’ from Middle High German and Old High German bruot, feminine, ‘vivified by warmth, brood, animation by warmth, brooding, heat’; compare Dutch broed, Anglo-Saxon brôd. ​English brood. The dental is derivative; brô, as the root-syllable, is discussed under Brühe; the primary root signified ‘to warm, heat.’ —
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Brägen

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Brägen. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Brägen, masculine, ‘brain’ (Low German), from Middle Low German bregen, equivalent to Dutch brein, English brain, Anglo-Saxon brœgen; no other related words are known.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Bräune

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Bräune. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Bräune, feminine, from Middle High German briune, ‘brownness,’ related to braun (as a malady, ‘brownish inflammation of the windpipe’).
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Bröschen

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Bröschen. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Bröschen, neuter, ‘sweetbread,’ first occurs in Modern High German, from Low German; compare Danish bryske, English brisket. See Brausche.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Brunst

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Brunst. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Brunst, feminine, from the equivalent Middle High German brunst, feminine, ‘burning, fire, glow, heat, devastation by fire’ (Brunftzeit, see Brunft); Old High German brunst, Gothic brunsts. In English this derivative from the root of brennen is wanting (compare Kunst from kennen); the s before the suffix t is due to the double n of the verb.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Bruder

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Bruder. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Bruder, masculine, ‘brother, friar,’ from the equivalent Middle High German bruoder, Old High German bruodar; compare Gothic brôþar, Anglo-Saxon brôþor, English brother, Dutch broeder, Old Saxon brôthar. Inherited, like most words denoting kinship, from the period when all the Aryans formed only one tribe, without any difference of dialect; the degrees of relationship (compare Oheim, Vetter, Vase) at that period, which is separated by more than three thousand years from our era, were very fully developed. The primitive form of the word Bruder was bhrãtô(r), nominative plural bkrâtores; this is attested, according to the usual laws of sound, both by Gothic-Teutonic brôþar and Latin frâter, Greek φράτηρ, Old Indian bhrâtar-, Old Slovenian bratrŭ; all these worlds retain the old primary meaning, but in Greek the word has assumed a political signification.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Brust

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Brust. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Brust, feminine, ‘breast, chest, pap,’ from the equivalent Middle High German brust, Old High German brust, feminine; it corresponds to Gothic brusts, a plural noun (conson. stem), feminine, Dutch and Low German borst. In the other Old Teutonic dialects the words corresponding exactly to Gothic brusts are wanting; they have a peculiar neuter form: Anglo-Saxon breóst, English breast, Old Icelandic brjóst, Old Saxon breost, which are related by gradation to High German Brust. This term for breast is restricted to the Teutonic languages (including Old Irish bruinne, ‘breast’?), the individual members of the Aryan group differing in this instance from each other, while other parts of the body (see Bug) are designated by names common to all of them. Of the approximate primary meaning of Brust, or rather of the idea underlying the word, we know nothing; the only probable fact is that the primitive stem was originally declined in the dual, or rather in the plural.

# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Matrose

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Matrose. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Matrose, masculine, ‘sailor,’ Modern High German only, from the equivalent Dutch matroos; Danish and Swedish matros. They are based on French matelot (Old French matenot), ‘sailor,’ which again is derived through a Norman medium from Scandinavian mötunautr, ‘messmate’ (the crew was divided into companies, who took their meals together).
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Mauer

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Mauer. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Mauer, feminine, from the equivalent Middle High German mûre, mûr, singular, ‘wall,’ Old High German mûra, feminine (mûri, feminine), ‘wall,’ from Latin mûrus, with an abnormal change of gender, which is probably caused by an Old Teutonic word for ‘wall’; compare Gothic waddjus, feminine. At the same period, before the High German permutation, Old Saxon mûr, Anglo-Saxon mûr, masculine (Old Irish múr), were also borrowed from the Latin, like other words relating to stone buildings; compare Siegel, Fenster, Pforte, Speicher, &c.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Matte

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Matte. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Matte (1.), feminine (an Alemannian word unknown to Suabian and Bavarian), from the equivalent Middle High German mate, matte, feminine, ‘mead, meadow’; Old High German *matta, feminine, is wanting (but Old High German mato-scrëch, ‘grasshopper,’ is preserved). Gothic *maþwa, *mêdwa, is not recorded; compare English meadow, mead, from Anglo-Saxon mœ̂d (genitive mœ̂dwe), ‘meadow,’ Middle Low German mâde, Old Low German mâtha, mada, Old Frisian mêth. They seem to be based on a Teutonic root mâþ, med, which is connected with Latin mêto, ‘to ​mow, reap,’ and which has a shorter form, mê, in Modern High German mähen.
Matte (2.), feminine, ‘mat,’ from Middle High German matte (late Middle High German also matze), Old High German matta, feminine, ‘covering woven of straw, rushes, &c., mat’; Dutch mat, Anglo-Saxon meatte, feminine, English mat. The correspondence of the High German and Low German-English dental indicates that the word was borrowed, and as a fact it was introduced during the Old High German period. It is based on Latin matta, ‘mat made of rushes.’
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Maulbeere

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Maulbeere. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Maulbeere, feminine, from the equivalent Middle High German mûlber, neuter and feminine, ‘mulberry,’ which originated, by differentiating r to l, from Old High German mûr-beri, môr-beri, neuter. The fluctuation from ô to û in Old High German indicates that the word was borrowed from Latin môrum, ‘mulberry,’ môrus, ‘mulberry tree,’ whence also Dutch moerbes, Anglo-Saxon and Middle English môrberie and mûrberie, Middle English also mulberie, English mulberry.
