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

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Aar. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Aar, masculine, from the equivalent Middle High German ar, Old High German aro, masculine, ‘eagle’; a primary Teutonic word, which has also cognates outside the Teutonic group. Compare Gothic ara, Old Icelandic are, masculine, ‘eagle'; further Old Icelandic ǫrn, Old High German, Middle High German arn (to which is allied Modern High German Arnold, Old High German Aranolt, original sense ‘eagle-guardian'), Anglo-Saxon earn, ‘eagle,’ Dutch arend, ‘eagle'; primarily cognate with Old Slovenian orĭlŭ, Lithuanian erélis, ‘eagle,’ Greek ὄρνις, ‘bird,’ Cornish and Breton er. Welsh eryr, ‘eagle.’ See Adler.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Aas

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Aas. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Aas, neuter, from the equivalent Middle High German, Old High German and Old Low German âs, neuter, ‘carcass, carrion'; compare the equivalent Anglo-Saxon œ̂s; allied to essen.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Abgott

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Abgott. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Abgott, masculine, ‘idol,’ from Middle High German and Old High German abgot, neuter, ‘idol, idolatrous image’; note the retention of the older gender of Gott as late as Middle High German; compare Gothic afguþs, ‘godless’ (antithesis to gaguþs, ‘pious’); hence Abgott is properly ‘false god’; see Aberwitz.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Aalraupe

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Aalraupe. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Aalraupe, feminine, ‘eel-pout' (also called Aalquappe, see Quappe), an eel-like fish, originally called Raupe merely; in Middle High German rū̆ppe, Old High German rûppa; as the Middle High German rutte (the equivalent and parallel form) indicates, the base of the word is probably supplied by the Latin rubêta, from which, through the Teutonic custom of displacing the accent in borrowed words (see Abt), we get rúbeta, and then, by the assimilation of the consonants through syncope of the intermediate e, the forms mentioned; names of fishes borrowed in Old High German from Latin rarely occur. See Quappe.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Abenteuer

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Abenteuer. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Abenteuer, neuter, ‘adventure,’ from ​MidHG. âventiure, feminine, ‘occurrence, a marvellous, fortunate event, a poem on such a theme, sources of the court poets’; the latter is derived from French aventure (Middle Latin adventura, allied to Middle Latin and Romance advenire, ‘to happen’).
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Aberglaube

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Aberglaube. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Aberglaube, masculine, ‘superstition,’ first occurs in early Modern High German (15th century); since Luther it has made its way into Modern High German; originally a Low German word (compare Adebar, Demut), as the vowel-sounds indicate. Low German aber, for over, ober, points to Old Low German *oƀar-gilóðo (Dutch overgeloof), ‘superstition,’ which is formed after the model of Latin superstitio; compare Danish overtro, Swedish öfvertro, but also in Middle Low German bîgelôve, Dutch bijgeloof.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Aberwitz

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Aberwitz. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Aberwitz, masculine, ‘false wit, craziness,’ from Middle High German aberwitze, abewitze, ‘want of understanding,’ from Middle High German abe, ‘away from,’ as in Middle High German abegunst, ‘envy, jealousy.’
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Abend

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Abend. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Abend, masculine, ‘evening,’ from the equivalent Middle High German âbent (âbunt); Old High German âband, masculine; corresponding to Old Saxon âƀand, Dutch avond, Anglo-Saxon œ̂fen, ‘evening,’ whence English eve; also the derivative Anglo-Saxon œ̂fning, English evening (compare morning); Old Icelandic aptann; similarly Gothic andanahti, original sense ‘forenight,’ and sagqs, literally ‘setting.’ The SEurop. term corresponding to Greek ἕσπερος, Latin vesper, is non-Teutonic (compare West and Winter). A verb aben (ooben), ‘to grow dusk,’ adduced from the Swiss dialects to explain Abend, can be none other than a later derivative of Abend. Moreover, Abend (base êp-) can scarcely be connected with ab (base apo), as if Abend were the waning period of the day. According to old Teutonic notions, the evening was regarded rather as the beginning of the following day. See Sonnabend and Fastnacht.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Aberraute

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Aberraute. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Aberraute, feminine, ‘southern-wood,’ a corruption of Latin-Greek abrotonum (French aurone), due to its supposed connection with Raute; see also Ebritz.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Abgrund

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Abgrund. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Abgrund, masculine, ‘abyss, precipice,’ from Middle High German abgrunt, masculine, most frequently abgründe, neuter, Old High German abgrunti, neuter, ‘abyss,’ properly ‘declivity’; compare Gothic afgrundiþa, feminine, ‘abyss.’

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

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Eiland. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Eiland, neuter, ‘isle,’ from Middle High German eilant, einlant(d), neuter, ‘land lying by itself, island’ (compare Middle High German eilif, from Old High German einlif, see elf). Ein here has the meaning ‘solitary, alone,’ as in Einsiedler, Einöde. English land, and Dutch eiland, are not allied; they belong to Au; see the latter.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Eidechse

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Eidechse. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Eidechse, feminine, from the equivalent Middle High German ęgedëhse, Old High German ęgidëhsa, feminine, ‘lizard’; like Eichhorn, the word has been corrupted in various ways in the other languages of the West Teutonic group, so that it is impossible to discover its primary meaning. Dutch haagdis, hagedis, ‘lizard,’ is based on haag, ‘hedge,’ in Middle Dutch eggedisse; Anglo-Saxon âþëxe, whence English ask, asker, ‘water-newt,’ is altogether obscure. The component Old High German -dëhsa, Anglo-Saxon -þëxe (to use Echsen, ‘lizards,’ in natural history as an equivalent term for Saurier, ‘Saurians,’ is a mistake due to a wrong derivation), may be connected with the Aryan root teks, ‘to make,’ which appears in Dachs; Old High German ęgi-dëhsa, literally ‘one who inspires fear’?. Compare Old High German ęgi, Gothic agis, ‘fear,’ primitively cognate with Greek ἄχος, ‘pain, sadness.’
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Eifer

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Eifer. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Eifer, masculine, ‘zeal, fervour, passion,’ from late Middle High German îfer, masculine (îfern, neuter), ‘zeal, jealousy.’ The word appeared at a remarkably late period (15th century), and its previous history is quite obscure; it found its way from Upper German, in connection with Luther's translation of the Bible, into Low German, Dutch, Danish and Swedish. Nothing can be adduced in favour of the assumption that the world was borrowed from Upper German eifern. An older German adjective, eifer, ‘sharp, bitter’ (as late as Logan), Old High German eivar, eibar, ‘sharp, bitter,’ Anglo-Saxon âfor, ‘sharp, bitter,’ might perhaps be cognate with Modern High German Eifer.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Einbeere

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Einbeere. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Einbeere, feminine, ‘one-berry, true-love,’ simply Modern High German; the assumption that the word is a corruption of juniperus is not necessary in order to explain the word. Compare Icelandic einer. —
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Eide

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Eide. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Eide, feminine, ‘awn, beard,’ Low German. See Ähre.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Eider

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Eider. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Eider, Eidergans, feminine, ‘eider-duck,’ simply Modern High German from Low German eider; the latter, like English eider, eider-duck, is from Icelandic œ̂þr (genitive œ̂þar), œþekolla, ‘eider-duck’ (Modern Icelandic œ is pronounced like ei). Eider-down was brought by the Hanse traders from Iceland to England and Germany, and from the latter imported into Sweden (Swedish ejder, ejderdun). To the Old Icelandic œ̂þr, Sanscrit âtí-, ‘water-bird,’ may correspond; the latter, it is true, is mostly connected with Ente; compare further Norwegian ȧdder, Swedish (dialectic) ȧda, ‘eider-duck’ (from Old Icelandic *áþr, without mutation).
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Eingeweide

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Eingeweide. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Eingeweide, neuter, ‘entrails, bowels, intestines,’ from Middle High German ĭngeweide (Anglo-Saxon innoþ from *inwâþ), neuter, ‘bowels,’ for which geweide, neuter, also meaning ‘food,’ chiefly occurs; Modern High German ein- for Modern High German ĭn, ‘within, inside’; Old High German weida, ‘food, pasture.’ Therefore Eingeweide must have meant literally ‘the food that has been eaten,’ and afterwards ‘the organs at work in digesting it’; compare also ausweiden, ‘to disembowel.’ See Weide. —
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Einsiedel

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Einsiedel. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Einsiedel, masculine, from the equivalent Middle High German einsidel, einsidele (also even einsidelœre), masculine, Old High German einsidilo (einsidillo, Gothic *ainsiþlja), ‘hermit;’ an imitation of Greek ἀναχωρητής, Latin anachoreta, basing it on Old High German sëdal, ‘seat.’ See siedeln.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Eimer

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Eimer. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Eimer, masculine, ‘pail, bucket,’ from the Middle High German eimber, ein-ber, masculine, Old High German eimbar, einbar, masculine, neuter, ‘pail’; corresponds to Old Saxon êmbar (êmmar), Dutch emmer, Anglo-Saxon ā̆mbor, ombor, masculine, ‘pail.’ Apparently a compound of ein- (Gothic ains) and a noun formed from the root ber (Greek φερ, Latin fer), ‘to carry,’ which is discussed under Bahre, Bürde; hence ‘a vessel to be carried by one person’?, or rather ‘a vessel with a handle’?. In reality, however, the words cited are only popular corruptions, which were suggested by Zuber (Old High German zwibar) as well as by Old High German sumbirî(n); for undoubtedly Old High German ambar, Anglo-Saxon ombor, are the older forms, as is also proved by the borrowed words, Old Slovenian ąborŭ, Prussian wumbaris, ‘pail’; in that case it would be connected with Greek ἀμφορά. Note too the diminutives Old High German amprî (Middle High German ęmmer?), Anglo-Saxon ęmbren, ‘pail,’ formed from Old High German sumdbirî(n).
