𐌽𐌹𐌿𐌾𐌹𐍃

Gothic

Etymology

From Proto-Germanic *niwjaz, from Proto-Indo-European *néwyos. The -jis in the nominative singular results from morphological levelling with the oblique forms, as the expected outcome of *-jaz in Gothic following a consonant would otherwise have been *-is. Other examples of this development include 𐌷𐌰𐍂𐌾𐌹𐍃 (harjis), 𐌽𐌹𐌸𐌾𐌹𐍃 (niþjis), 𐌰𐌻𐌾𐌹𐍃 (aljis) and 𐌼𐌹𐌳𐌾𐌹𐍃 (midjis).^[1]
