Происхождение
From Middle English hord, from Old English hord (“an accumulation of valuable objects cachFrom Middle English hord, from Old English hord (“an accumulation of valuable objects cached for preservation or future use; treasure; hoard”), from Proto-West Germanic *hoʀd, from Proto-Germanic *huzdą (“treasure; hoard”), of unknown origin, but possibly derived from Proto-Indo-European *kewdʰ- (“to conceal, hide”), thus meaning “something hidden”. Cognate with German Hort (“hoard; refuge”), Icelandic hodd (“treasure”), Latin cū̆stōs (“guard; keeper”).
From Middle English hord, whorde, from Anglo-Norman hurde and Old French hourd, hourt (“barrier, palisade”), from Middle Dutch horde, from Old Dutch *hurd, from Proto-West Germanic *hurdi (“wickerwork, braiding of branches, hurdle, scaffolding, military company”).
