Spanish etymological dictionary

Question

Is there a good electronic etymological dictionary of Spanish available? I mean something like Collins dictionary of English, where for every word you can find the following (for the word "blue", for instance):

Etymology: C13 from Old French bleu, of Germanic origin; compare Old Norse bl?r, Old High German bl?o, Middle Dutch bl?; related to Latin fl?vus yellow

A Comprehensive Etymological Dictionary of the Spanish Language with Families of Words Based on Indo-European Roots: Volume I (A-G) - Huettig, Sep 15, 2014

Answer 1

The drae usually only has etymology back one word, usually to French, Latin, Greek, or another Spanish word. Often the foreign language roots are also roots of an English word and the etymology going backwards from there is the same, so you can just use your Collins.

Answer 2

Etymology: C13 from Old French bleu, of Germanic origin; compare Old Norse bl?r, Old High German bl?o, Middle Dutch bl?; related to Latin fl?vus yellow

The RAE is the only comprehensive online dictionary I know of, but it does not provide so much information. For individual words, maybe I can help you with their etymology and give you details.

I see. Thank you very much - netimen, Sep 9, 2011

Answer 4

Just found this old thread.

In 2014, Edward A. Roberts published his two volume dictionaries: "A Comprehensive Etymological Dictionary of the Spanish Language with Families of Words Based on Indo-European Roots" http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1493191101?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00 Highly recommended!
