Origin: IE [Indo-European] [493] * gʷʰer- `warm'

Etymology: With θέρος agrees in form exactly Skt. háras- n. `heat', IE *gʷʰéros-, like Arm. ǰer `id.' (sec. o-stem). The meaning `summer' is a Greek innovation (`heat' = θέρμη, θάλπος). In the sense of `harvest' θέρος may be from θερίζω *`do summerwork'. With the thematic root present θέρομαι agrees OIr. fo-geir `warms, heats'. The other languages have diff. formations: Arm. ǰer-nu-m, aor. ǰer-ay `warm oneself' (: Skt. ghr̥-ṇo-ti `lights, burns' [gramm.], cf. ghr̥-ṇá- m. `glow, heat'), OCS grě-jǫ grě-ti sę `warm oneself' (gorjǫ, gorěti `burn') etc. - More forms in Bq, Pok. 493ff., W.-Hofmann s. formus and fornāx, Ernout-Meillet s. formus, Vasmer Russ. et. Wb. s. gorétь, Fraenkel Lit. et. Wb. s. gãras.
