parchv.

Brit. /pɑːtʃ/, U.S. /pɑrtʃ/
Forms: Middle English–1600s parche, late Middle English– parch, 1500s partch, 1500s partche, 1500s perch, 1600s parrch, 1600s pearch. N.E.D. (1904) also records a form Middle English perch.
Origin: Of unknown origin.
Etymology: Origin unknown.A suggested derivation < an Anglo-Norman or Middle French variant of percer pierce v. (compare French regional (Picardy) percher ) is not tenable on semantic grounds. An alternative suggestion involves a derivation < post-classical Latin persiccare to dry thoroughly (5th cent.; < classical Latin per- per- prefix + siccāre siccate v.; compare classical Latin persiccus very dry; compare French †parseicher ); but the absence of any evidence for a Middle French intermediary presents considerable difficulties. Parch has also been suggested to be < perish v. or its French etymon, with a phonological development similar to that of nursh v. Earlier currency is suggested by the surname Alan Parchehare (1246–7).
