Etymology
[edit]From Middle High German and Old High German hār, from Proto-West Germanic *hār, from Proto-Germanic *hērą, from Proto-Indo-European *keres- (“rough hair, bristle”).
Compare Dutch haar, West Frisian hier, English hair, Danish hår.
Pronunciation
[edit]Noun

Usage notes
[edit]- When referring to a person's hair collectively, the singular may be used with no article, as is common in English: Sie hat graues Haar. – "She has grey hair." However in German, unlike English, it is more common to use the plural: Sie hat graue Haare. When referring to an individual hair, the indefinite article is used: Sie hat ein graues Haar. – "She has a (single) grey hair".
