Definition birth

Etymology

From Middle English birthe (1250), from earlier burthe, burde, from Old Norse burğr, byrd (Old Swedish byrth, Swedish börd), replacing Old English ?ebyrd (rare variant byrş), equivalent to bear +‎ -th. The Old Norse is from Proto-Germanic *burdiz (compare Old Frisian berde, berd); Old English ?ebyrd is from prefixed *gaburşiz (compare Dutch geboorte, German Geburt), from Proto-Indo-European *b?r?tis (compare Latin fors (“luck”), Old Irish brith), from *b?er- (“to carry, bear”). More at bear.
