History
Etymology
Borrowed from French haricot (“bean”).
From French haricot, from Middle French haricot, a deverbal derivation of Old French harigoter (“to tear up, shred, slice up, slice into pieces”), from Frankish *hariōn (“to ruin, lay waste, ravage, plunder, destroy”), from Proto-Germanic *harjōną (“to plunder, lay waste, harry”). Cognate with Middle High German verheeren (“to harry”), Old English herġian (“to lay waste, ravage, plunder”). More at harry.
