Where this word comes from
Etymology tree Proto-Indo-European *dʰreh₁n-der. Proto-Germanic *drēnuz Proto-West Germanic *drānu Old Saxon drāna Middle Low German drāne Middle Low German drōnebor. German Drohne Ca. 1600, from Middle Low German drōne (variant of commoner drāne), from Old Saxon drāna, from Proto-West Germanic *drānu, from Proto-Germanic *drēnuz. The Low German form replaced older Tren(e), Trän(e), from Middle High German trën(e), from Old High German trëno, from the Germanic ablaut variant *drenô. This may have been reinforced by the desire to avoid homonymy with Träne (“tear”). The word was originally a masculine but became feminine in Early Modern German, probably under the influence of Biene (“bee”). Drones were at that time distinguished only by function; the fact that they were males was generally unknown. The aircraft sense is a semantic loan from cognate English drone.
