The derived vb. OE. árian to regard, reverence, honour, = ON. eira to spare, OHG. êren, Ger. ehren to honour, is found in Early ME. as are v.¹]1. Respect, reverence; honour, glory.αc900tr.

(1 ár), 3 or, 4 oor, 5– ore, (6 wore, 6–8 oare, 7–8 oar.)[Two types of this word are found from 14th to 17th c.: viz. (1) oor(e, oure, owre, ur(e, of which (as shown by spelling and by rimes) the regular mod. repr. would be oor (ʊə(r)), and which corresponds to OE. óra wk. masc. ‘unwrought metal’, ‘ore’, corresp. to Du. oer, LG. (E. Fris.) ûr, of uncertain origin; (2) ME. ôr, in 17–18th c. oar, mod. ore, which answers phonetically to OE. ár (also ǽr) ‘brass’ = OS. êr (in êrin ‘brazen’), MDu. eer, OHG., MHG. êr, ON. eir, Goth. aiz str. neut. ‘brass’ = L. æs, ær- ‘brass’, Skr. ayas ‘metal’. It would appear that, about the 12th c., OE. ár began to be identified in sense with OE. óra, and that forms descended from both continued side by side until the 17th c., when the forms from óra became obs., or were levelled under those from ár. Thus the mod.Eng. word appears to derive its sense from OE. óra, but its form from OE. ár ‘brass’, which may have been extended to the sense ‘metal’, and thus to ‘ore’. It is possible that, in very modern Eng., the form oor might itself have passed into |ɔə(r)|, as in the spoken forms of door, floor, and southern pronunc. of moor, poor; but this would not explain the double forms from 13th to 17th c., nor the 16th c. oar.]1. a. A native mineral containing a precious or useful metal in such quantity and in such chemical combination as to make its extraction profitable. Also applied to minerals mined for their content of non-metals.Sometimes, esp. formerly, applied also to a mixture of a native metal with a rock or vein-stone, or to metal in an unreduced or unworked state.[Cf.a1000L. & Ags.

XII. 357 Sometimes..in the mining of the non-metallic substance sulphur, the output of the mine is called ‘sulphur-ore’, although no metal is involved at all. Yet while we may not especially controvert this usage, it cannot be said to seriously affect the general and large conception of ore as limited to the metalliferous minerals.1913W. Lindgren Mineral Deposits i. 4 The use of the term ‘ore’ is not quite consistent. Ordinarily it implies a metal, but the expression ‘sulphur ore’, meaning pyrite, is sometimes seen, and occasionally such terms as ‘sapphire ore’ are found.1939G. A.
