Etymology
From northern Middle High German ver(e) (13th c.), from Old High German *fera, from Proto-Germanic *farjǭ (“ferry”), derived from *farjaną (“to bring, carry”), the causative of *faraną (“to travel”), whence German fahren. Analogy with this verb caused the modern ⟨ä⟩-spelling. The word was at first chiefly Central German, later being reinforced by cognate Middle Low German vēre. Upper German dialects used var n, from Proto-Germanic *farą. Both words originally meant both the place and vehicle of crossing. Akin to Dutch veer, English ferry, Danish færge, Swedish färja.
