French

[edit ]

Etymology

[edit ]

Inherited from Middle French abri , from Old French abri ("a place where one is sheltered from the elements or harm"), from abrier ("to cover"), from Late Latin abrigō ("to cover, shelter"), from a- + brigō , from Frankish *biwrīhan ("to cover, protect"), from Frankish *bi- ("be-") + *wrīhan , from Proto-Germanic *wrīhaną ("to cover, clothe"), from Proto-Indo-European *werḱ- , *werǵ- ("to twist, weave, tie together"). Cognate with Old High German birīhan ("to cover"), Old English bewrēon ("to cover, enwrap, protect").

Late Latin abrigare may have also crossed with Old Frankish *bergan ("to take care of, protect, hide"), from Proto-Germanic *berganą ("to care for"), from Proto-Indo-European *bhergh- ("to take care"), due to similarity in form and meaning.[1] If so, this would relate the word also to Old High German bergan ("to shelter") (German bergen ) and Old English beorgan ("to save, preserve"). More at bury and borrow .
