In summary

From late Middle High German ūre, from Middle Low German ûre (“hour”), from Middle Dutch ure, from Old Dutch *ūra, from Old French houre, from Latin hōra, from Ancient Greek ὥρα (hṓra), from Proto-Indo-European *yeh₁- (“year, season”). The word was borrowed in the late 14th century when the diphthongization of -ū- into -ou-, -au- was already complete in most dialects; a shifted form exists, however, in dialects (compare Luxembourgish Auer). In German, the word early on developed the sense “timing device”, not present in other languages. Compare further Dutch uur, English hour, French heure. Doublet of Jahr.
