Etymology[edit]

The Old English and Old Saxon words come from the Proto-Germanic root, and also compare WŌRIAN[6] (wander) with this root. Dutch WAREN[5] (wander), may also be compared. Updated: 10:06, 16 April 2020 (UTC)Andrew (talk)


[0] means 'Absolutely not; [1] means 'Exceedingly unlikely'; [2] means 'Very dubious'; [3] means 'Questionable'; [4] means 'Possible'; [5] means 'Probable'; [6] means 'Likely'; [7] means 'Most Likely' or *Unattested; [8] means 'Attested'; [9] means 'Obvious' - only used for close matches within the same language or dialect, at linkable periods.
