Etimologia (Inglês)

Herdado de inglês médio: branche

Cognato com alto alemão médio: pranke

Cognato com alemão: Pranke

Cognato com nórdico arcaico: rá

Cognato com lituano: rankà

Cognato com eslavo eclesiástico: рѫка

Cognato com albanês: rangë

Herdado de inglês médio: braunchen

In summary

From Middle English branche, braunche, bronche, from Old French branche, branke, from Late Latin branca (“footprint”, later also “paw, claw”) (whence Middle High German pranke, German Pranke (“paw”)), of unknown origin.
Perhaps of Celtic origin, from a hypothetical Gaulish *vranca, from Proto-Indo-European *wrónk-eh₂. If so, then Indo-European cognates include Old Norse rá, vró (“angle, corner”), and possibly Lithuanian rankà (“hand”), Old Church Slavonic рѫка (rǫka, “hand”), Albanian rangë (“yardwork”).
The verb is from Middle English braunchen, from the noun.
