Translations
Etymology
Eventually from Old French guarnir, from Frankish *warnijan (“to ward, take care of”), from Proto-Germanic *warnijaną. Related to but not identical with German warnen, English warn. Perhaps partly through Middle Low German garnēren (“to clad with wood”, 15th c.), but in the contemporary sense (17th c.) directly from modern French garnir.
