trevë

See also: trêve

Albanian

Etymology

Pokorny (1959) attributed it to Proto-Indo-European *treb-, *trē̆b, *trōb (“building, dwelling”) (cf. Latin trabs (“balk, beam”), Welsh tref (“dwelling”), Lithuanian trobà (“house, edifice, building”), Old English ðorp.

Orel and Çabej attributed it to Middle Greek τρέβα "truce", itself from treve (also Old French trieve, whence French trêve), from Frankish *treuwu, from Proto-Germanic *trewwō (“fidelity; pledge”). etymologically identical to Proto-Celtic *trebā, if not derived from it.
