Etymology of IS BRED
The phrase "is bred" is not a word itself, but rather a compound combination of the verb "is" (a form of the verb "to be") and the past participle of the verb "breed".
The word "breed" comes from the Old English word "brēdan", which meant "to bring up, nourish, or rear". It can also be traced back to the Old English word "beran", which meant "to carry" or "to give birth to". From these roots, it developed the meaning of "to produce offspring or reproduce".
Over time, "breed" evolved to refer to the selective breeding of animals or plants for specific traits. It began to be used in the context of raising and improving the quality of a certain species. The verb "breed" eventually took on a more general meaning of "to cause something to happen or develop".
