Etymology

From Old Irish bérlacair, a borrowing from Late Latin vernāculāris, from Latin vernāculus ‎(“domestic, indigenous, of or pertaining to home-born slaves”), from verna ‎(“a native, a home-born slave (one born in his master’s house)”), influenced in form by bélre ‎(“language, speech”) (compare modern Béarla ‎(“English language”)).
