Etymology[edit]
Borrowed from Frankish *wardōn (“to guard, protect”).
Supposedly attested in the seventh century in the form guardāre, but this has yet to be confirmed.[1] The earliest certain attestation appears to be the prefixed rewardant in the Reichenau Glossary.
Verb[edit]
wardō (present infinitive wardāre, perfect active wardāvī, supine wardātum); first conjugation (Early Medieval Latin)
