Etymology

From Middle High German alter, altære, from Old High German altāri, from Proto-West Germanic *altārī (“altar”), borrowed from Latin altāre. The form was readapted to the Latin source, partly to avoid homophony with Alter (“age”). Compare also Dutch altaar alongside archaic outer. See: Latin Nouns 'altāre', Dutch Nouns 'altaar'.
