Cymric
Cymric 1839, from Welsh Cymru "Wales," Cymry "the Welsh," pl. of Cymro, probably from ancient combrox "compatriot," from British Celtic *kom-brogos, from collective prefix *kom- (see COM- (Cf. com-)) + *brogos "district," from PIE *merg- "boundary, border" (see MARK (Cf. mark) (n.1)). Cf. Allobroges, name of a warlike people in Gallia Narbonensis, lit. "those from another land."
