▪ I. parrock, n. Now chiefly dial.|ˈpærək|
(see paddock). Forms: 1 pearroc, pear(r)uc, 5 parrok, 6 -ocke, 6– parrock, (7 parock, dial. purrock, 9 dial. parrack, -ick).
[OE. pearroc, -ruc masc., corresp. to OHG. pfarrih, pfęrrih, MHG. pferrich ‘fencing about, enclosure, enclosed space’, mod.Ger. pferch ‘fold (for sheep, etc.)’; MLG. perc masc. and neut.; MDu. perc, parc, Du. perk, park neut., ‘pen’, and (after Fr.) ‘park’; all pointing back to a com. WGer. *parruk, -ik. Found also in early med.L. as parricus, parcus (8th c. in Ripuar. Laws), and in mod. Romanic langs.: It. parco, Sp., Pg. parque, Pr. pargue, parc, F. parc, whence ME. parc park, and mod.Ger. park, Du. park (in part). Also in Welsh parwg (from ME. parrock), parc (from Eng.), Gael. pàirc (from Eng.), Bret. park (from Fr.).
The ulterior origin and relations are disputed: see Diez, Körting, Kluge, Franck. The OE. and cognate Ger. forms show that the word must have been in WGer. as early as the 4th c. The oldest sense in OE. and OHG. appears to be ‘the enclosing fence or hurdles, clathri’, rather than ‘the enclosed space’. Diez and Körting favour a Romanic origin, and possible connexion with L. parcĕre, parcus adj., but Darmesteter rejects this, because Prov. pargue (with pargou, pargade, pargagi) requires orig. parric- not parc-. A Celtic origin is out of the question (Thurneysen); all the Celtic forms are late borrowings from Eng. and Fr. It is thus not improbable that *parruk, *parrik, was a dim. of a WGer. *parra, OHG. pharra, Ger. pfarre, in an original sense ‘circuit, compass, precinct, district’ (taken in Christian times as a convenient equivalent for med.L. parochia parish); cf. mod. dial. par n.3 ‘enclosure for beasts’, and ME. parren, par, parr v.1 ‘to enclose, confine’.]
