† ferev.1

Forms: infinitive Old English–Middle English féran (Old English Northumbrian fœ́ran), Middle English feren, ( fearen), Middle English færen, southern væren. past tense Old English fér(e)de, Middle English ferd(e, Middle English southern verde, (Middle English feorde, foerde, Middle English færde), Middle English farde, Middle English furde.
Etymology: Old English féran weak verb, corresponding to Old Frisian fêra , Old Saxon fôrian (Dutch voeren ) to carry, Old High German fuoren (Middle High German vüeren , modern German führen to lead), Old Norse fœ́ra (Swedish föra , Danish före ) to bring < Old Germanic *fôrjan , < *fôra (Old English fôr , fore n. way), < ablaut-root of faran , fare v.1The Old English verb, unlike all the equivalent forms in other Germanic languages, was intransitive, having the sense ‘to take a journey, march, travel’. The difference in meaning between faran and féran even in Old English is hardly perceptible, and in Middle English it wholly vanishes, fare being more and more restricted to the present-stem and fere to the past tense and past participle See the remarks s.v. fare v.1
Obsolete.
