Etymologie

[ bi-trA ] (verb.) 13th century. From Middle English betrayen (“to betray, expose”), alteration of earlier bewrayen (“to betray, reveal, disclose”), from be- + wrayen (“to betray, reveal, divulge”), from Old English wrēġan (“to accuse, impeach”), from Proto-Germanic *wrōgiánan, *wrṓχianan (“to tell, speak, shout”), from Proto-Indo-European *were-, *wrē- (“to tell, speak”). Alteration influenced by Middle English traien, traissen (“to hand over, be disloyal to, commit treason, betray”), from Old French traïr (“to commit treason, betray”), from Latin trādere, present active infinitive of trādō (“deliver, give over”, verb). See traitor, treason, tradition. Cognate with Old Frisian biwrōgja (“to disclose, reveal”), Old High German biruogen (“to disclose, reveal”), Modern German berügen (“to defraud”), Swedish röja (“to betray”). More at wray, bewray.
