    [Verb]  | "heir" 


    1: inherit


    Origin: 14th century ;

     Middle English erren, heyren, derivative of eir, eyre {see: |heir:1|heir:1};

    [Noun]  | "heir" | \ ˈer \


    1: one who receives property from an ancestor : one who is entitled to inherit property

    2: one who inherits or is entitled to succeed to a hereditary rank, title, or office

    3: one who receives or is entitled to receive something other than property from a parent or predecessor


    Origin: 13th century ;

     Middle English eir, eyre, heir, borrowed from Anglo-French heir, going back to Vulgar Latin *hērem, *hēre, taken as oblique forms (by declension reassignment) of Latin hērēd-, hērēs, from hēr- (probably going back to Indo-European *ǵheh1ro- "abandoned, derelict," whence also Greek chêros "widowed, orphaned, bereaved," chérā "widow") + -ēd-, perhaps a suffixal element;

      * Note : Latin hērēd- has been directly compared with the base of Greek chērōstaí "kinsmen inheriting the property of a person lacking closer relatives" (with the agent suffix -tēs). Opposing the interpretation of *-ēd-/*-ōd- as a suffixal element is an older explanation that see:s the etymon as a compound of *ǵheh1ro- and the verbal base *h1ed- "eat"—the whole hence meaning approximately "that which devours what is left behind." (The Greek outcome would then be from *ǵheh1ro-h1d-, with zero grade of the verb.) The adjective *ǵheh1ro- has been taken as a derivative of the verbal base *ǵheh1- "let go, leave behind" (see: {go:1|go:1}).;
