Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French cervoise.
Etymology: Originally (i) < Anglo-Norman and Middle French cervoise beer (late 12th cent. in Old French; French (now historical) cervoise ) < classical Latin cervesia (in post-classical Latin also cervisia ) beer, apparently < an unattested Gaulish derivative formation < the reflex (with different ablaut: e -grade) of the Celtic base of Gaulish curmi , Early Irish cuirm , Old Welsh curum (Welsh cwrw , †cwrf ), all in the sense ‘beer, ale’ (of uncertain origin, perhaps further related to classical Latin cremor thick juice made by steeping or boiling (e.g. barley): see cremor n.) + a suffix of uncertain identity (perhaps reflecting an extension of the Celtic base + a cognate of classical Latin -ia -ia suffix1). In later use (ii) reborrowed < French cervoise.
Ale, beer.In later use only with reference to various kinds of beer brewed or consumed in French-speaking countries.
