"lareow" meaning in Old English

See lareow in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈlɑːrˌe͜oːw/
Etymology: From lār (“teaching; doctrine”) + *ēow, a word or suffix of uncertain origin and meaning, yet apparently found also in Old Saxon lērio, lēreo (“teacher, prophet”). Some authorities believe the second element to be a corruption of Old English þēow (“servant; minister”), which shows up in later forms of the word, e.g. Old English lārþēaw (for *lārþēow), Middle English lorthew, etc., yet this might be assimilation in retrospect caused by confusion or folk-etymology.
