geard enclosure /Old English
Norse garðr, a yard, Middle English gard, garþ, English yard, garden [mcb]
court /English [ep: p.125]
Area enclosed by buildings, hence all the other senses, derives from Middle English court, curt, cort from the same forms in Old French, cort being the clearest derivatives from Latin cort-, oblique stem if cors a contraction of cohors, oblique-stem cohort- : co- for con-, with + stem and root the same with those of hortus, a garden
gird to encircle especially with a belt; girt (past participle) /English [ep: p.255]
Middle English girden (gerden etc.); Old English gyrdan; akin to Old Frisian gerda, Old Saxon gurdian, Old High German gurtēn, German gürten, Gothic bigairdan, Old Norse gyrtha
According to [ep: p.255], gird is intimately akin to-indeed, probably from Old English gyrdan, stem gyrd-, is Old English gyrdel: c.f. Old Frisian gerdel, Old High German gurtil, Middle High German-German gürtel and Old Norse gyrthill. The Hittite gir, a girdle, suggest that Old Germanic gerd-, gird-, gurd-, perhaps represents a Germanic intensive -d extension of Indo-European *ger-, gir-, gīr-, gur- (c.f. Greek guros), a circle, a ring.
