[edit]Etymology
[edit]From Proto-Indo-European *bʰreg- (“to break”) with the nasal infix *-n-. De Vaan reconstructs PIE *bʰrnǵ-,[1] but since descendants of this formation are not found in Celtic or Germanic, Schrijver argues it could be a Latin innovation and suggests the original vocalism can't be established.[2]
