Old Irish[edit]
Etymology[edit]
From Proto-Celtic *gʷereti, possibly from Proto-Indo-European *gʷorti-, a variant of *gʷʰer- (“warm, hot”), if the meaning developed from "hot."[1] MacBain prefers a derivation from *ǵʰers- (“to bristle”).[2] Both roots have compared to German garstig (“nasty, rude”).
