| Expand abbreviations An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/brach | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ brach, adj. (espec. in compounds such as Brachfeld, &c.), ‘uncultivated, fallow,’ merely ModHG. In MidHG. there is only the compound brâchkmânôt, ‘June,’ which contains a subst. brâche, f., OHG. brâhha (MidLG. brâke), ‘aratio prima,’ as its first component; Brache is ‘turning up the soil after harvest’; from brechen.

# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/borgen

| Expand abbreviations An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/borgen | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ borgen, vb., ‘to borrow, lend,’ from MidHG. borgen, OHG. borgên, orig. ‘to watch over, spare a person,’ then ‘to remit him his debt, to borrow’; also ‘to be surety for something’; similarly AS. borgian, ‘to protect’ and ‘to borrow,’ E. to borrow. Since the meaning ‘to watch over’ underlies both borgen, ‘to borrow,’ and bürgen, ‘to be responsible,’ the word may be compared with OBulg. brěgą, ‘I take care of.’ The root may have been Teut. borg-, pre-Teut. bhergh-; perhaps bergen is to be connected with the same root.

# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/bohren

| Expand abbreviations An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/bohren | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ bohren, vb., ‘to bore, pierce,’ from the equiv. MidHG. born, OHG. borôn; comp. the corresponding Du. boren, AS. borian, E. to bore (and bore, ‘hole made by boring’); Goth. *baúrôn. The prim. Teut. bŏrôn, ‘to bore,’ is primit. cognate with Lat. forare, ‘to bore,’ Gr. φαράω, ‘I plough’; Sans. bhurij, ‘scissors,’ belongs to the same root, and in Ir. there is a verbal root berr, from bherj, meaning ‘to shear.’ The primary meaning of this root bhar, which differs from that appearing in Geburt and Lat. fero, Gr. φέρω was probably ‘to fashion with a sharp instrument.’ Comp. ModHG. dial. Bohrer, ‘woodlouse,’ E. bore.

​ rauch, adj., ‘rough, hairy’; equiv. to ​rauh; Rauchwerk, ‘furs, skins’ (MidHG. rûchwërc) contains ModHG. rauh, ‘hairy, covered with hair’; Rauchhandel (ModHG. only), ‘trade in furs, furred skins.’
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/raufen

​ raufen, vb., ‘to pluck, pull out,’ from the equiv. MidHG. and OHG. roufen (MidHG. also röufen); corresponding to Goth. raupjan, ‘to tear out, pluck off.’ A Teut. root raup (see rupfen) has not yet been found elsewhere; it is, however, probably connected with the Aryan root rup, ‘to break’ (see Raub). —
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/rauh

| Expand abbreviations An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/rauh | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ rauh, adj., ‘rough, harsh, coarse,’ from MidHG. rûch (infl. rûher), OHG. rûh (infl. rûhêr), adj., ‘rongh, shaggy, bristly’; comp. MidDu. ruch, ModDu. ruig, ruw, ‘rough,’ AS. rûh, E. rough. Goth. *rûhs, rûhws, are wanting. Perhaps primit. allied to Lith. raúkas, ‘wrinkle,’ rùkti, ‘to become wrinkled.’ The compound Rauchwerk, ‘furs, skins,’ preserves normally the uninflected form of MidHG. rûch. See rauch.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/rasen

| Expand abbreviations An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/rasen | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ rasen, vb., ‘to rave, rage,’ from MidHG. rasen (rare), ‘to storm, rave’; corresponding to LG. rasen, Du. razen. It is usually thought that the word was borrowed from LG., since it is not found in HG. till the end of the 13th cent. Allied to AS. râsettan, ‘to rave,’ rœ̂san, ‘to make a violent attack,’ rœs, ‘attack, charge’ (comp. E. race), OIc. rás, ‘race, running,’ and rasa, ‘to rush headlong.’
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/rauben

| Expand abbreviations An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/rauben | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ rauben, vb., ‘to rob, plunder,’ from MidHG. rouben, OHG. roubôn; OSax. rôbôn, AS. reáfian, whence E. to reave (the AS. subst. reáf has become obsolete in E.), Goth. biraubôn, ‘to plunder, despoil.’ The Teut. cognates passed with two distinct meanings into Rom.; comp. on the one hand Ital. ruba, ‘robbery,’ rubare, ‘to rob,’ Fr. dérober, ‘to steal,’ and on the other Ital. roba, ‘coat, dress,’ Fr. robe. The latter are connected with Raub, since by inference from OHG. roub and AS. reáf, ‘robbery, booty, armour, dress,’ the OTeut. word had probably acquired the meanings of ‘garments got by plundering, dress (generally).’ See also raufen.

​ rasseln, vb., ‘to rattle, clatter,’ from MidHG. raȥȥeln (from raȥȥen), ‘to bluster, rave,’ but based in meaning on LG. rateln, ‘to clatter’; comp. MidHG. ratzen, ‘to rattle,’ Du. rateln, ‘to clatter, chatter,’ ratel, ‘rattle, clapper,’ AS. hrœtele, E. rattle. The Teut. root hrat appearing in these words is connected with Gr. κραδαίνω, ‘I swing.’

​ raunen, vb., from the equiv. MidHG. rûnen, OHG. rûnên, ‘to whisper, to utter in a low, soft tone,’ allied to MidHG. rûne, f., ‘whisper, secret conference.’ Corresponding to OLG. rûnôn, AS. rûnian, E. to roun (round), also AS. rûn, f., ‘secret deliberation, secret,’ Goth. rûna, f. (see Alraune), ‘secret, secret resolution’; OIc. rún, f., ‘secret, rune.’ It has also been compared further with the cognates, Gr. ἐρευνάω, ‘to search, track,’ as well as with Ir. rún, ‘secret.’

# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Kluppe

| Expand abbreviations An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Kluppe | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Kluppe, f., ‘pincers,’ from MidHG. kluppe, f., ‘tongs, barnacles, splinter,’ OHG. kluppa, f., ‘tongs.’ Kluppe, like ModHG. Kluft (dial.) ‘tongs,’ is also derived from OTeut. kliuban, ‘to split, cleave’; unfortunately correspondences in other dialects are wanting (Goth. *klubjô?). Comp. klieben, klauben, and Kluft.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Kluft

| Expand abbreviations An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Kluft | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Kluft, f., ‘chasm,’ from MidHG. kluft, f., ‘cleft, chasm, cave, vault, tongs,’ OHG. chluft, f., ‘tongs, shears,’ prop. ‘splitting’ (as a verbal abstract of the OTeut. kliuban, ‘to split,’ discussed under klieben). The tongs, as an instrument with a slit, is called dial. Kluft; comp. Kluppe. The MidHG. meaning ‘vault’ (crypta) seems to be due to a confusion of Kluft with the foreign word crypta (see Gruft). Goth. *klufti-, f.; ​AS. *clyft, E. cleft, clift, Du. kluft, f., ‘cleft, notch, chasm.’
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Klüngel

​ Klüngel, n., ‘clew,’ from MidHG. *klüngel, klüngelîn, OHG. chlungilîn, n., ‘clew,’ dimin. of OHG. chlunga, f., ‘clew’; if ng be a suffix, as in jung, the word may be allied to Knäuel, OHG. chliuwa (root klu, Aryan glu), in which case it would be brought into connection with other terms; it is, however, more probably allied to E. to cling, from AS. clingan, ‘to cling to, hold fast, adhere.’

| Expand abbreviations An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Klumpe | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Klumpe, Klumpen, m., ‘slump, lump,’ ModHG. only; from the equiv. LG. klamp, Du. klomp, m.; comp. E. clump. Scand. klumba, f., ‘club,’ with a different labial, also a variant klubba; klubbu-fótr, whence the equiv. E. ‘club-foot.’ Further references have not been discovered. Comp. Kolben.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Knabe

| Expand abbreviations An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Knabe | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Knabe, m., ‘boy, lad, youth,’ from MidHG., late OHG. chnabo, m., ‘boy’; also ‘youth, fellow, servant,’ with the originally equiv. variants, ModHG. Knappe, MidHG. knappe, OHG. chnappo (OHG. chnabo and chnappo are related like Nabe and Nappe). AS. cnapa, OSax. knapo, and OIc. knape, ‘attendant, squire,’ present some difficulties compared with AS. cnafa, E. knave. Equally obscure is the relation of the entire class to the root ken, Aryan gen (Lat. genus, gi-gn-o, Gr. γένος, γι-γν-ομαι, &c.), with which some etymologists would like to connect it; if it were allied, OHG. chnëht (kn-ëht) also might perhaps be compared.
​ Knabe may with OIr. gnia, 'servant,' point to a common base, gnopot, gnepot.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Klotz

| Expand abbreviations An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Klotz | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Klotz, m. and n., ‘block, log, stump,’ from MidHG. kloz (gen. klotzes), m. and n., ‘lump, bullet,’ hence equiv. to MidHG. klôȥ; AS. *clott, E. clot; we may therefore assume Goth. *klutta-, the relation of which to klauta-, mentioned under Kloß, is evident. In the non-Teut. languages the Teut. root klut (‘bale’?), adduced under Kloß, has not been definitely authenticated; a root glud appears in Lith. gludus, ‘clinging to,’ glausti, ‘to cling to.’

Goth. *klauta- is wanting; the Teut. root klut appears also in the following word.

OSax. twêntig, LG. and Du. twintig, OFris. twintich, AS. twêntig (from twœ̂gentig?), E. twenty (see -zig).

# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/falsch

| Expand abbreviations An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/falsch | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ falsch, adj., ‘false, wrong,’ from the equiv. MidHG. valsch, adj.; OHG. *falsc is not recorded. On account of late AS. fals, E. false, Scand. fals, which are clearly derived from Lat., the word is doubtlessly connected in some way with Lat. falsus. But since the latter retained its s unchanged (comp. Ital. falso, Fr. faux, from OFr. false), we cannot imagine that the word was borrowed directly from Lat.-Romance (OIc. falskr is a German loanword of the 15th cent.). Probably MidHG. valsch, a comparatively recent formation (comp. fein, wach), from OHG. gifalscón, gifęlscen, vb., ‘to falsify,’ which is derived from a Lat. *falsicâre; Romance *falscare, ‘to falsify.’ The assumption that MidHG. valsch (akin to vâlant, ‘demon’?) is primit. allied to Lat. fallere, Gr. σφάλλεσθαι, is scarcely valid.

​ fangen, fahen, vb., ‘to catch, seize, fish (an anchor), soften (hides),’ from MidHG. vâhen, vân, OHG. fâhan, ‘to catch, intercept, seize’; the common Teut. vb. — Goth. fâhan, OIc. fá, AS. fôn (for *fôhan from *fõhan; wanting in E.) — has the same meaning. Root fanh (whence fãh, fâh), and by a grammatical change fang (this form is really found only in the partic. and pret., but it has made its way in ModHG. into the pres. also), pre-Teut. pank. With the Teut. cognates some have compared the unnasalised root pak, in Lat. pax, pacem (lit. ‘strengthening’?); akin to the nasalised pango (partic. pactum), with g for c?, Sans. pãça, ‘cord’; the root pak appears without a nasal in Teut. fôg; see HG. fügen. —
