Harn (some speakers, chiefly in casual speech)

From Middle High German harren, further origin is unclear. Popularised by Luther. Perhaps borrowed from Middle Low German harren, harden (“to wait, await”), from Old Saxon *hardōn (“to become hard, harden, be steadfast, await”), from Proto-West Germanic *hardēn (“to become hard, endure, wait, persevere”), related to Old High German hartēn (“to harden, await, endure, be steadfast”). Cognate with German Low German harren (“to await”), Saterland Frisian häide (“to endure, bear”), Middle Dutch verharren (“to be or become overly firm”).

2023, Benjamin Steffen, “Schon wieder keine Abfahrt in Zermatt: War es das mit dem Männer-Weltcup am Matterhorn?”, in Neue Zürcher Zeitung:

This cross-border race from Switzerland to Italy remains a phantom. Euphorically proclaimed in 2020, it is still in await of its premiere.
