Origin: Apparently formed within English, by derivation. Etymon: pack n.1
Etymology: Apparently < pack n.1, with unexplained ending.The nature of the ending is not clear: perhaps an alteration of -et in packet n. (perhaps compare faggald n., and forms at shirrel n.), or perhaps a form of hold n.1 Perhaps compare Middle Dutch packeel pack. For a possible variant with suffix substitution (see -ard suffix) compare rare Older Scots packard package, packet (which survives in Scots regional (Morayshire) packart in the specific sense ‘packsaddle, pannier’):1628 Brechin Test. iv. f. 342 Item tuelff pakkard ane hunderethe small prins.1921 Trans. Sc. Dial. Comm. in Sc. National. Dict. (1968) VII. 5/2 Packart, a saddle made of birch wands fitted on the back of a pony on each side of which peats could be built up and carried. The β. forms show the development of a back glide before the velar consonant. With the γ. forms compare forms of pack n.1 and paidle n. with stem vowel e . With sense 3 compare earlier pickle n.3 2 (which may perhaps also have influenced the stem vowel of the γ. forms; compare forms at that entry).
Scottish and Irish English (northern) in later use.
