Etymology

1. Mostly likely from Late Latin apricāre, from Latin aprīcārī (“warm in the sun”), from aprīcus (“sunny”). The form abrier may have been of southern French origin, possibly via Old Occitan abriar (cf. the dialectal French form avrier). Compare Occitan, Catalan, Spanish and Portuguese abrigar.
2. Alternatively, and less likely, from a Late Latin *abrigāre (“to cover, shelter”), from a- + brigare, from Frankish *berīhan (“to cover, protect”), from Proto-Germanic *bi- + *wrīhaną (“to cover, clothe”), from Proto-Indo-European *werḱ-, *werǵ- (“to twist, weave, tie together”). Cognate with Old High German birīhan (“to cover”), Old English bewrēon (“to cover, enwrap, protect”). Compare Spanish abrigar, which may be related; alternatively, both may derive from a Latin aprīcō, aprīcāre. See: Latin 'aprīcor', Old Occitan 'abriar', Portuguese 'abrigar', Old High German 'birīhan', Spanish 'abrigar', Latin 'aprico'.
