her: [OE] Her is the modern English descendant of Old English hire, a derivative of the same Germanic base, *khi-, as produced he. It was the genitive and dative case of the feminine personal pronoun: the former, which we would now express as of her, has become the possessive adjective, as in ‘her job’, and the latter is now the object form, as in ‘follow her’. The possessive pronoun hers dates from the 14th century. => he
her (objective case)
Old English hire, third person singular feminine dative pronoun, which beginning in 10c. replaced accusative hie (see he). Cognate with Old Frisian hiri, Middle Dutch hore, Dutch haar, Old High German iru, German ihr.
her (possessive case)
Old English hire, third person singular feminine genitive form of heo "she" (see she).
