proud

Etymology
From Middle English proud, prout, prut, from Old English pr?d, pr?t (“proud, arrogant, haughty”) (compare Old English pr?tung (“pride”); pr?de, pr?te (“pride”)). Cognate with German Low German praud, Old Norse prúðr (“gallant, brave, magnificent, stately, handsome, fine”) (Icelandic prúður, Middle Swedish prudh, Danish prud), probably from Old French prod, prud (“brave, gallant”) (modern French preux), from Late Latin pr?de (“useful”), derived from Latin pr?desse (“to be of value”); however, the Old English umlaut derivatives pr?te, pr?tian, etc. suggest the word may be older and possibly native. See also pride.
