[Of this word there were two ME. types, both however going back to WGer. *hârjâ deriv. of hăr hair: the first directly through OE., WS. hǽre, Angl. hére wk. fem., which regularly became in ME. hêre, heare, heere, and, with mutescence of final e, heer; the second, ME. haire, through OF. haire, med.L. haira:—OFrankish *hârja (OHG. hârra); the form from French survived longest, but is now obs. or merged in hair n. (sense 7). The ME. variant hare evidently arose from assimilation to the corresponding Norse form of hair.]
