Harrowed does exist in English.  A harrow (spring or disk) is an instrument
farmers use to bust up the soil.  To harrow is to use one of these in your
fields.  eg.  "Have you harrowed yet?  No, its still too muddy"

*hallard may not exist, but halyard/ haliard do.. /haely0rd/.  Is that close
enough?
