Pronunciation

/ˈber/ /ˈbɛr/

Etymology

[ bar, ber ] (noun.) before 12th century. Middle English bere, from Old English bera, from Proto-Germanic *berô (compare West Frisian bear, Dutch beer, German Bär, Danish bjørn), from Proto-Indo-European *bhreu- (“shining, brown”) (compare Tocharian A parno, B perne (“radiant, luminous”), Lithuanian bė́ras (“brown”)). Use of an epithet (“brown”) in Proto-Indo-European is presumably taboo avoidance; compare Russian медведь (“bear”), literally “honey-eater”, and French renard (“fox”), from proper name Renard. Related to brown and beaver.
