braon

From English brown.

braon

1. brown

From Old Irish bráen (“rain, moisture, drop(s)”), of uncertain ultimate origin. MacBain rejects comparisons to fearthainn (“rain”), Ancient Greek βρέχω (brékhō, “I send rain”), Latin rigo (“I water, moisten”), English rain, but does compare English brine.
