Etymology

From Middle French jars, gars, from Old French jars, garz, gart, from Frankish *gaʀd (“spike, stick, sting”) (in reference to the male's penis), from Proto-Germanic *gazdaz (“rod, staff”). Cognate with Old High German gart (“sting, goad, spur, gad”), Old English ġeard (“rod, spike”). Compare also Gaulish *garanos (“crane”), from Proto-Celtic *garanos.
