Where this word comes from

From Middle High German brant, from Old High German brant, from Proto-West Germanic *brand. Cognate with Bavarian Brånd and English brand. The retention of /d/ in the combination /nd/ is a signature of northern High German dialects and only becomes widespread after a period in the Middle Ages where the southern reflex /nt/ is favoured in southern writings.
