But is the origin 'can ... suffer'?
One can use 'tolerate' for 'like'...
Yes, "leiden" can mean as much as to endure, and I think that
when you say you can endure someone well, it means that you
like him (in the sense of "to be fond of him").
What I've only just learned from looking it up in the
dictionary of origins is that the verb "leiden" is not
originally etymologically related to the adjective "leid"
and the noun "Leid" derived from that adjective!
