guerrear

Galician

Etymology

From Old Galician-Portuguese guerrejar (13th century, Cantigas de Santa Maria), from Vulgar Latin *werridiāre, ultimately from Proto-West Germanic *werru. By surface analysis, guerra (“war”) +‎ -ear. Considering its ending, perhaps influenced by or borrowed from Spanish guerrear.
