Etimologia (Inglese)

Ereditato da inglese medio: harwe

Ereditato da inglese antico: *hearwa

Affine danese: harve

Affine olandese: hark

Ereditato da inglese antico: hergian

In summary

From Middle English harwe, harow, from Old English *hearwa (perhaps ultimately cognate with harvest), or from Old Norse harfr/herfi; compare Danish harve (“harrow”), Dutch hark (“rake”). Akin to Latin carpere. According to the OED, the verb senses are partly derived from the noun sense, partly from a by-form of the verb harry, itself from Old English hergian.
