kirsebær

From Middle Low German kersebere, from kerse (“cherry”) +‎ bere (“berry”).

• The first element is from Vulgar Latin ceresia, from the neuter plural of Late Latin ceresium, from Latin cerasium, from Ancient Greek κεράσιον (kerásion, “cherry”), from Ancient Greek κερασός (kerasós, “bird cherry”), ultimately possibly of Anatolian origin. Compare Middle High German kirse.
• The second element is from Old Saxon beri, from Proto-West Germanic *baʀi; therefore a doublet of bær.
