From Middle Welsh breið. The Dictionary of the Welsh Language connects it with Breton bre (“pain, trouble”). Morris Jones, on the other hand, associates it with Ancient Greek βραδύς (bradús, “slow, slow-witted”) and Latin gurdus (“dimwit, numbskull”) (compare also Lithuanian gurdùs (“slow”) and Old Church Slavonic гръдъ (grŭdŭ, “proud”)).
