Etymology

From Middle Cornish preder, from Proto-Brythonic *pritarā, *pritaro. The expected Proto-Celtic form would be *kʷritro, *kʷrid, but the Brythonic term lacks Goidelic cognates. The ultimate origin is obscure, as obvious Indo-European cognates are lacking (Proto-Indo-European *kʷer- (“to do, put together”) is close phonologically, but not semantically convincing). Cognate with Breton preder (“concern”) and Welsh pryder (“worry”).
