Deer
deer
- O.E. deor "animal, beast," from P.Gmc. *deuzan, from PIE *dheusom "creature that breathes." Sense specialization to a specific animal began in O.E. (usual O.E. for what we now call a deer was heorot), common by 15c., now complete. Probably via hunting, deer being the "favorite animal" of the chase (cf. Skt. mrga- "wild animal," used especially for "deer").
