"Park" meaning in German

See Park in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /paʁk/, [pʰaʁk], [pʰaɐ̯k], /paːk/ Audio: De-Park.ogg
Etymology: A doublet of inherited Pferch (“pen [for animals]”). The form Park was first borrowed in the 15th/16th centuries from Middle Dutch park, in which the word had developed the sense “recreation park, enclosed hunting grounds” under the influence of Old French parc. German Park remained sporadic, however, until it was reinforced (or borrowed anew) from modern French parc and English park from the late 17th century on. For the further origin of all mentioned cognates compare Pferch and park.
