# 𐍅𐌰𐍂𐌼𐌾𐌰𐌽
## Gothic
### Etymology

From Proto-Germanic *warmijaną. In the sense of "cherish", possibly a semantic loan from Koine Greek θάλπω (thálpō, “to warm, to care for, to cherish”). May be distantly related to Koine Greek θερμαίνω (thermaínō, “to warm, heat”), which it otherwise translates.

### Pronunciation

* IPA: /ˈwarm.jan/

### Verb

𐍅𐌰𐍂𐌼𐌾𐌰𐌽 • (warmjan)
* to warm (to make or keep warm)
