"farn" meaning in Proto-West Germanic

See farn in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

Etymology: Etymonline's sources (such as Watkins) derive this word from Proto-Indo-European *pornóm (“feather”), from Proto-Indo-European *per- (“to traverse; go across”). However, Kroonen instead reconstructs Proto-Indo-European *p(t)erH-, a root whose morphology is subject to heated debate. See there for more. In any case, cognate to Latvian papartis, Proto-Celtic *ɸratis, Sanskrit पर्ण (parṇa), and Proto-Slavic *paportь.
