From Middle English lord and lorde (attested from the 15th century), from earlier (14th century) lourde and other variants which dropped the intervocalic vowel of earlier lowerd, louerd, loverd, laford, and lhoaverd; from Old English hlāford and hlāfweard, a compound of hlāf (bread, loaf) + weard (ward, guardian, keeper); see loaf and ward. The compound exists in Icelandic as lávarður, related to the Old English hlāf-ǣta (servant, កម្ចីតាមន័យ bread-eater); it was already being applied broadly prior to the literary development of Old English and was influenced by its common use to translate Latin dominus. Compare Scots laird (lord), preserving a separate vowel development, and modern English lady, from Old English hlǣfdīġe (bread-kneader).[]
