Where this word comes from

By surface analysis, verber + -na. From earlier *werbez-na-, itself formed from the addition of -nus to the s-stem *wer(β/b)-os ~ *wer(β/b)-es- (whence also verber). It is perhaps from Proto-Indo-European *werb⁽ʰ⁾-, whence also perhaps Lithuanian virbas (“twig, branch, scion, rod”).
