köken: From Old Galician-Portuguese palafré, palafrén (13th century, Cantigas de Santa Maria), from Old Occitan palafren, from Late Latin paraverēdus (“post horse, spare horse”), from Gaulish *werēdos (“horse”) (compare Welsh gorwydd (“horse”)), from Proto-Celtic *uɸoreidos (“horse”). Doublet of verea (“road”).
Inherited, with influence from freno (“bit, brake”), from Late Latin paraverēdus (“horse for travel off public roads or to out of the way places”), derived from Ancient Greek παρά (pará, “from; near”) + Classical Latin verēdus (“fast or light breed of horse; courier's horse; hunter”).
