Where this word comes from
Borrowed from Danish brød (“bread”), from Old Danish brøth, from Old Norse brauð (“bread”), from Proto-Germanic *braudą (“bread”). The deeper origin is disputed. Kroonen proposes a Proto-Indo-European pre-form *bʰrowh₁-tó-s, from the root *bʰrewh₁- (“to boil, seethe”), while another analysis regards the Germanic noun as a conflation involving this root and *bʰerH- (“to pierce, strike”). Cognate with Norwegian Nynorsk braud and brød, Icelandic brauð, Faroese breyð, Swedish bröd, English bread, Dutch brood and German Brot (“bread”).
