Etymology

Borrowed from Latin: bracchialis

In summary

Borrowed from Latin bracchialis, from bracchium (“arm”). The common sense from the use of the arms as a means of violence, as in a fist fight; probably reinforced by the phonetic similarity with brechen (“to break”, compare past tense brach).
