different between baron vs res
baron
English
Etymology
From Middle English baroun, in turn borrowed from Old French baron, Medieval Latin bar? (not to be confused with classical b?r? (“simpleton”)), possibly from Frankish *bar? (“servant, man, warrior”), perhaps from *barô (“carrier”), from Proto-Indo-European *b?er- (“to bear”). Possibly cognate with Old English beorn (“man, warrior”). Used in early Germanic law in the sense of hom? (“man, human being”).
A Celtic origin has also been suggested, due to the occurrence of a Latin barones (“servos militum”) as early as the first century (Cornutus, On Persius' Fifth Satire). OED takes this hypothetical Proto-Celtic *bar- (“hero”) to be a figment.

- Nevertheless, from my own agonies of the first few months, after which I did not miss smoking at all, I could appreciate the need of others. It was in this atmosphere of craving that the 'barons' thrived. Barons are prisoners who lend tobacco.
- 1980, Leonard Michaels, Christopher Ricks, The State of the Language (page 525)
- In British prisons tobacco still remains the gold standard which is made to back every transaction and promise. The official allowance is barely sufficient for individual smoking needs, but tobacco may expensively be borrowed or bought from a baron, possibly through his runner.
