iron 铁，熨斗来自古英语isaern,铁，铁制品，铁制武器，来自PIE*eis,坚硬的，坚固的。部分词源学家进一步推测来自PIE*h1esh2r,血，词源同sanguine,血红色。由血引申词义血红，铁水，铁。同时，由于血在古代观念中的神圣含义，引申词义神圣的，强烈的感情，衍生ire,estrus,hieratic等。参照blood,bless.

13、
iron: [OE] Iron is probably a Celtic contribution to English, but the borrowing took place in the prehistoric period, before the Germanic dialects separated, and so English shares the word with German (eisen), Dutch (ijzen), Swedish (järn), etc. The prehistoric Celtic form from which these all ultimately came was *īsarnon, which some have linked with Latin aes ‘bronze’ and Sanskrit isira- ‘strong’. The ancient Indo- European peoples had already split up into groups speaking mutually unintelligible tongues by the time iron came into general use, so there was never any common Indo-European term for it.

iron (n.)
15、
Old English isærn (with Middle English rhotacism of -s-) "the metal iron; an iron weapon," from Proto-Germanic *isarnan (cognates: Old Saxon isarn, Old Norse isarn, Middle Dutch iser, Old High German isarn, German Eisen) "holy metal" or "strong metal" (in contrast to softer bronze) probably an early borrowing of Celtic *isarnon (compare Old Irish iarn, Welsh haiarn), from PIE *is-(e)ro- "powerful, holy," from PIE *eis "strong" (cognates: Sanskrit isirah "vigorous, strong," Greek ieros "strong").Right so as whil that Iren is hoot men sholden smyte. [Chaucer, c. 1386]
