Your 'et-grao' is called 'toe-maat' in Southern Dutch: toe = zu (G) and
maat = Mahd (G). 'Et' is not a Latin loanword, but indeed cognate with
Latin 'et' (and)..."et" in 'étappe' is different though.</span><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
Indo-European root that you can also find in Brabantish "nöreken",
chewing cud, "to ruminate" < edericken (Middle Dutch). Probably
exists in Saxon too...something along the lines of "etrecken" ? What's
the Saxon verb for a cow chewing her cud?</span><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
Kind greetings,</span><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
