/jɛrv/
UrsprungFrom Old Swedish diærver, from Old Norse djarfr, from Proto-Germanic *derbaz. According to Svenska Akademiens ordbok it may be related to the same stem as Old English deorfan ("to work; to act") and Lithuanian dirbti ("to work"), or Ancient Greek τρέφω (tréphō) ("to make solid; to make fat; to feed; to nurture"). Nationalencyklopedins ordbok suggests a relation to German derb ("coarse").
- bold, daring, venturesome.
“Det var ett djärvt förslag.” — That was a bold suggestion.
