Étymologie (Anglais)

Possibly from garfa (“animal's claw”), from Andalusian Arabic جَارْفَا (gárfa, “handful”), from Arabic غُرْفَة (ḡurfa, “cup or dipper”), from غَرَفَ (ḡarafa, “to ladle”), with influence from garfio (“hook”).
Or, possibly from Gaulish *garrā (“leg”) (compare Breton gar, Old Irish gairri (“calves”)), from Proto-Celtic *garrā; see Cornish garr. Compare to English har / English harr.
