Dutch

Alternative forms

• verre (archaic)

Etymology

From earlier verre, from Middle Dutch verre, Old Dutch ferro, from Proto-West Germanic *ferrō, from Proto-Germanic *ferrai, from Proto-Indo-European *per- (“to go over”). Originally solely an adverb, adjectival usages represent a secondary development visible in many Germanic languages.

The now-obsolete sense of "by far" was already present in the Middle Dutch word, and survived until as late as the nineteenth century.

The inflected adjective form verre was historically sometimes re-formed as verde (see there for more).

Pronunciation

• IPA^(key): /vɛr/, (colloquial) [fɛr]
