Word origin

It is believed to originate from the Middle English word 'blaren', meaning 'to cry out' or 'to shout.' The evolution of this term is associated with the onomatopoeic nature of the word, where the sound itself suggests its meaning. Over time, 'blare' has become widely used in various contexts to describe loud sounds, particularly those that are harsh or grating. The use of 'blared' typically conveys a sense of suddenness and is often used in contexts involving alarms, horns, or loudspeakers, emphasizing the disruptive nature of the sound being described.
