Oxman[]
Etymology[]
From Old Oxman rêrden (to disuss), the inflected form of noun 'rerd' meaning 'discussion, speech', itself Old Oxman rerde, from Old Auregan rerda, itself from Proto-Germanic *razdō originally meaning 'a voice, language or speech'. The sense became more specific in Oxman and was assimilated to a discussion at table, and thus led to the current sense of 'eating altogether, discuss at table'. Cognate with Old English reord (a sound), Old Saxon rarda and Old High German rarta (a sound).
