съ-

From Wiktionary, the free dictionary

Old Church Slavonic

[edit]

Etymology

[edit]

From Proto-Slavic *sъ(n)-, from *sъ(n), from Proto-Indo-European *ḱom. The /n/ persists in сънѧти (sŭnęti), from ѧти (ęti, to take). Compare the analogous loss of -n- in въ- (vŭ-).

Not to be confused with Proto-Slavic *sъ- (good), from Proto-Indo-European *h₁su-.
