- weary
- weary: [OE] Weary is descended from a West Germanic *wōriga, whose other offspring have all died out. It was formed from the base *wōr-, which also produced Old English wōrian ‘wander, totter’ and Old Norse örr ‘mad’, but its ultimate ancestry is uncertain.
- weary (adj.)
- Old English werig "tired, exhausted; miserable, sad," related to worian "to wander, totter," from Proto-Germanic *worigaz (cognates: Old Saxon worig "weary," Old High German wuorag "intoxicated"), of unknown origin.
- weary (v.)
- Old English wergian "to be or become tired" (intransitive), gewergian "to exhaust, to make tired" (transitive), from the source of weary (adj.). Related: Wearied; wearying.
