weird (adj.)

c. 1400,

• “having power to control fate”, from wierd (n.), from Old English wyrd “fate, chance, fortune; destiny; the Fates,” literally “that which comes,”

• from Proto-Germanic wurthiz (cognates: Old Saxon wurd, Old High German wurt “fate,” Old Norse urðr “fate, one of the three Norns”),

• from PIE wert- “to turn, to wind,” (cognates: German werden, Old English weorðan “to become”),

• from root wer- (3) “to turn, bend” (see versus).

• For sense development from “turning” to “becoming,” compare phrase turn into “become.”
