Etymology
1. Borrowed from Anglo-Norman parformir, parfornir, from par- + fornir (“to furnish”).
2. Forms with /m/ are due to the analogy of Anglo-Norman former (“to create”) (Middle English formen); though both such forms and those with /n/ were borrowed into Middle English, the latter predominate after 1400, likely due to continuing analogical influence. For the variation in vocalism, see forme (“form”).
