Etymology of KLIER

The word "klier" is derived from Middle Dutch "clier" or "cliere", which ultimately comes from the Old Dutch "klaro" or "klero". These terms have their roots in the Old High German word "klaro", meaning "spring" or "source". Over time, the meaning of "klier" shifted to refer to a small gland or lymph node, reflecting its anatomical association with the source or origin of various bodily fluids. This term's evolution in meaning occurred as the word was borrowed and adapted from Old Dutch into Middle Dutch and eventually entered the modern Dutch language.
