Etymology

[edit]

    From *h₁é. (Can this(+) etymology be sourced?) De Vaan proposes an old locative singular of *h₁et-,[1][2] reflected in Sanskrit अत् (at, to go), as he explains “Originally used to add something to a previous utterance, or to indicate the sequence of different actions”. Beekes and Derksen give the same etymology provided by De Vaan.[3][4] Ringe, however, reconstructs it as *éti.[5]
