Herdado de Middle Dutch: heien

Relativo a latín: caedo

In summary

From Middle Dutch heien, of uncertain ultimate origin; perhaps related to Latin caedo (“I cut”), where the syncope of -d- would have taken place very early. If so, related to Proto-Germanic *hittijaną (“to hit, make contact with”).
