אַרן
See also: ארן
Yiddish edit
Etymology edit
Possibly contracted from Middle High German arnen (“to harvest; to deserve; to suffer for a misdeed; to make so suffer; to requite”), from Old High German arnōn (“to harvest”), from Proto-Germanic *aznōną, whence also English earn. The Yiddish ar- implies that a following consonant was lost; otherwise we would expect or- as in פֿאָרן (forn) from Middle High German varn.
Verb edit
אַרן • (arn) (past participle געאַרט (geart))
- (impersonal) to bother, concern, be an annoyance
- עס אַרט ניט ווען ער קומט שפּעט. ― es art nit ven er kumt shpet. ― It doesn't bother [me] if he comes late.
