Etymology
From Middle English foreyn, forein, from Old French forain, from Vulgar Latin *for?nus (“outsider, outlander”), from Latin for?s (“outside, outdoors”), also spelled for?s (“outside, outdoors”).
Displaced native Middle English elendish, ellendish (“foreign”) (from Old English elelendisc, compare Old English ellende (“foreign”), elland (“foreign land”)), Middle English eltheodi, eltheodish (“foreign”) (from Old English elþ?odi?, elþ?odisc (“foreign”)), and non-native Middle English peregrin (“foreign”) (from Old French peregrin).
