Etymology 1
From Middle EnglishCategory:English terms inherited from Middle English#PEERCategory:English terms derived from Middle English#PEER peren, pyren, piren (“to peer, gaze”), perhaps from Old EnglishCategory:English terms inherited from Old English#PEERCategory:English terms derived from Old English#PEER *pȳran (“to look, peer”), from Proto-West GermanicCategory:English terms inherited from Proto-West Germanic#PEERCategory:English terms derived from Proto-West Germanic#PEER *pūrijan (“to look”), related to Saterland Frisian pierje (“to look”), Dutch Low Saxon piren (“to look”), West Flemish pieren (“to look with narrowed eyes, squint at”), Dutch pieren (“to look closely at, examine”), Middle English pouren (“to gaze, look closely”), English pore (“to study meticulously”). Compare also West Frisian pluere (“to peer”), Dutch pluren (“to gaze squintingly”), German Low German plieren (“to blink”), Danish plire (“to peer”), Swedish plira, blira (“to peer”), and thence ultimately related to the root of English blear.
The sense meaning "to be visible" is perhaps from a shortening of appear.[1][2][3]
