Etimologie (Engels)

Geërf van Middle Dutch: bure

Geërf van Old Dutch: *būr

Verwante met Limburgs: -

Verwante met Old English: būr

In summary

From Middle Dutch bure, from Old Dutch *būr, from Proto-Germanic *būraz (“dweller, inhabitant”), thus originally the same as modern buur (“neighbour”). The form boer is that of many eastern dialects including Limburgish, where Germanic -ū- has been retained as a back vowel. In early modern Dutch these two dialectal forms were adopted as semantically distinguished words. Cognate to Old English būr, ġebūr (whence English bower) and Old High German būr (whence German Bauer).
