orped

adj

Etymology

From Middle English orped, orpud, from Old English orped (“grown up, adult, of full strength, stout, active, bold”), of unknown origin. Possibly from Old English or- (“without”) + pād (“tunic, cloak”), literally "without cloak, tunic-less" in the sense of "ready to fight, brave, daring" (compare English berserk), though many see this as unconvincing.

  1. derived from or- — “without”
  2. inherited from orped — “grown up, adult, of full strength, stout, active, bold”
  3. inherited from orped
