𐌰𐌿𐍂𐍄𐌹𐌲𐌰𐍂𐌳𐍃

Gothic

Etymology

From *𐌰𐌿𐍂𐍄𐍃 (*aurts) +‎ 𐌲𐌰𐍂𐌳𐍃 (gards). The first element of the compound seemingly derives from Proto-Germanic *urtiz. According to Lehmann and others, however, the first element of this compound is simply Vulgar Latin *orto (“garden”), perhaps its genitive form, from hortus; compare Italian orto.

Cognate with Old English ortġeard (English orchard); this is taken by Lehmann to be a parallel formation, not a common inheritance from Proto-Germanic.
