Is this in any way related to "ehren" in German? 66.112.113.82 20:13, 19 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

Not likely, no. The two words, though similar in meaning today have very distinct histories, with German ehren coming from Proto-Germanic *aizijaną (“to honour”), very different from the etymology of this word. Leasnam (talk) 17:01, 20 December 2014 (UTC)Reply
