agarimar

• garimar

From Old Galician-Portuguese agarimar (13th century, Cantigas de Santa Maria). Perhaps from Latin *aggremiare, from Latin gremium (“lap, bosom”);^[1] alternatively from a Suevic^[2] descendant of a Proto-Germanic *ga- +‎ *rīmą (“number, calculation”), whence Old High German girīman (“to count, to be granted”). The semantic evolution would be in that case: "to put in a pile", then "to bring near", then "to shelter".
