guerrear

Galician

Etymology

From Old Galician-Portuguese guerrejar (13th century, Cantigas de Santa Maria), from Vulgar Latin *werridiāre, ultimately from Proto-West Germanic *werru. By surface analysis, guerra (war) + -ear. Considering its ending, perhaps influenced by or borrowed from Spanish guerrear.

guerrear (first-person singular present guerreo, first-person singular preterite guerreei, past participle guerreado)

  1. to wage war
