Etymology
Lord comes from old English parts hlaf and weard, meaning 'loaf' and 'guardian'. A helpful way to remember it is to think of a lord as the person who 'watched the bread' and so was the master and protector of the household, which is why people also use Lord as a title for God — the highest authority.
