French

Etymology

Inherited from Old French druide (13th c.), borrowed from Latin druidae, from Gaulish *druwits, from Proto-Celtic *druwits (“wise person”). The Old French form is definitely a borrowing and not inherited. The question poses itself, however, whether the word was inherited since then or borrowed again later on.
