Where this word comes from
Possibly from Paleo-Hispanic, from a superlative of Proto-Indo-European *per- (“before”), meaning "the highest" (or similar). Cognate with Pali parama (“superior, excellent”). This same element is present in Hispanic autochthonous personal names (e.g. Anparamo), theonyms (e.g. Paramaecus) and toponyms (e.g. Paramica) recorded in Roman inscriptions, or by Greek and Roman authors.
first-person plural present/perfect active indicative of parō
