Origin: A word inherited from Germanic.

Etymology: Cognate with Old Icelandic gífr (noun) (poetic) fiend, witch, troll-wife (see note), apparently < the same Germanic base as Middle Dutch gīpen to have the mouth open (Dutch gijpen to gasp for breath), German regional (Bavaria) gaifen (of an opening) to gape, (Switzerland) gīfen (of an opening) to gape, (of a person) to covet (both 16th cent.), reflecting an ablaut variant of the Germanic base of Old Icelandic geipa to talk idly (see discussion at gasp v.).The Old Icelandic noun is used of various malevolent beings, but compare especially its use in kennings for wolves and as the name of a hellhound; it is apparently originally a transferred use of an adjective with the sense ‘rapacious, greedy’, although the only direct evidence for such an adjective in Old Icelandic is a single doubtful attestation in a late manuscript; compare however Old Icelandic gífrliga (adverb) savagely (including of a dog), and also Faroese gívin energetic, persistent, pertinacious. With the Old Icelandic noun compare Old English gīfer , apparently in sense ‘glutton’, attested in poetry as epithet or name of a kind of worm that devours a human corpse:OE Soul & Body I 116 Gifer [OE Soul & Body II gifer] hatte se wyrm, þe þa eaglas beoð nædle scearpran. Related word. Compare English regional (northern) †givour greedy ( Eng. Dial. Dict. records the pronunciation as /ɡaivə(r)/), which shows either an alteration of yever adj. with initial plosive /ɡ/ as a result of Scandinavian influence, or the reflex of a separate borrowing of the early Scandinavian adjective:1900 J. E. Dent in Eng. Dial. Dict. II. 629/1 [S. Durham, N. Yorkshire] An eel is said to be a givour fish.Compare also its apparent derivatives, which are attested earlier: †giverous greedy, gluttonous, covetous (17th cent.; compare yeverous adj.) and †giversome , in the same sense (1869 or earlier; compare yevrisome adj. at yevery adj.
