From Proto-West Germanic *feuwar, from Proto-Germanic *fedwōr, whence also Old Saxon fiuwar, Old English fēower, Old Norse fjórir. Ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *kʷetwṓr, the neuter form of *kʷetwóres.
fior
Inherited from Latin flōrem m.
fior m or f
Inherited from Latin febris, febrem, either through a Vulgar Latin root *februm, after declension change, or by back-formation from the plural of an original form *fiore (or *fiure) > fiori. Ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *dʰegʷʰris, an extension of the root *dʰegʷʰ- (“to burn, warm”).
