The word 'friend' is one of the rare cases in the English language whose meaning has remained consistent throughout hundreds of years of usage. The word of Germanic origin has existed in the English language since its founding in Old English. Back then, 'friend' existed as 'freond' which was the present participle of the verb freon, 'to love'. The root of the verb was 'fri-' which meant 'to like, love, or be affectionate to'. We can still see the remnants of this verb every day of the week- Friday or 'day of Frigg' is devoted to the Germanic goddess of love Frigg.
