Nguồn gốc từ
From Middle English kyndrede, from older kynrede (kindred), from Old English *cynrēd, *cynrǣden (kindred, family, stock), from cynn (kind, kin, lineage) + -rǣden (condition, state). Equivalent to kin + -red, see these. The -d- is epenthetic between a nasal and a liquid (as e.g. in spindle).
