[edit] Noun
tor (plural tors)
- Alternative form of tore ("hard, difficult; strong; rich").
[edit] Etymology 2
From Middle English tor, torr-, from Old English torr, tor (“a high rock, lofty hill, tower”), possibly from Celtic, compare Old Welsh *tor (“a hill”); ultimately from Latin turris (“high structure”), from Ancient Greek τύρρις (týrris), τύρσις (týrsis, “tower”), of non-Indo-European origin. Cognate with Welsh twr, Irish torr. It is not clear whether the Celtic forms were borrowed from Old English, or vice versa. See also tower.
