Etymology
Borrowed from, from , via , from , from (literally either “oak-knower” or “firm knower, great sage”), from either  or  and.

The earliest record of the term in Latin is by Julius Caesar in the first century B.C. in his De Bello Gallico. The native word for "druid" is first attested in Latin texts as  (plural) and other texts also employ the form  (akin to the Greek form). Cognate with the later insular Celtic words, 🇨🇬 and early 🇨🇬.
