​ Fahrt, feminine, ‘journey, ride, drive, voyage, course,’ from Middle High German vart, Old High German fart; compare Old Saxon fard, ‘journey, voyage,’ Anglo-Saxon fyrd, ferd, feminine, ‘journey, voyage, expedition, troops on the march,’ Old Icelandic ferð, feminine, ‘journey’; Gothic *farþs or *fards is wanting, but the term us-farþô (us skipa, ‘shipwreck’) occurs once. From por-ti-s, a derivative of the root por appearing in fahren; compare also fertig.
