Etymology

Template:Root From Template:Inh, Template:M, Template:M, from Template:Inh, from Template:Inh, from Template:Inh, from Template:Inh, from Template:M. Related to Template:M.

Germanic and Celtic are the only Indo-European language branches in which the PIE word with the meaning of "dear, beloved" acquired the additional meaning of "free" in the sense of "not in bondage". This was an extension of the idea of "characteristic of those who are dear and beloved", in other words friends and tribe members (in contrast to unfree inhabitants from other tribes and prisoners of war, many of which were among the slaves – compare the Latin use of liberi to mean both "free persons" and "children of a family").[1][2] Template:Box-bottom The verb comes from Template:Inh, Template:M, from Template:Inh, Template:M, from Template:Inh, from Template:Inh, from Template:Der, and is cognate with Template:Cog, Template:Cog, Template:Cog, Template:Cog, Template:Cog.
