Etimología (Inglés)

Heredado de alto alemán medio: hœrec

In summary

From Middle High German hœrec (“obedient”), equivalent to hören (“to hear, listen, obey”) + -ig. The historic sense after Middle Low German hōrich (“serfish”), derived from the same verb, but probably not (or not primarily) in the sense of “to obey”, but rather “to belong” (for which High German gehören and hence also gehörig in older German).
