Etymology
PIE word |
---|
*swé |
Uncertain.
- Based on semantic similarity to suēscō (“to become used to”) and sodālis (“close companion”), Walde-Hoffmann (1954) and Pokorny (1959) opt for *sodeō, from Proto-Italic *sweðēō, from Proto-Indo-European *swe-dʰh₁-, expanded from the reflexive pronoun Proto-Indo-European *swé (“self”) + *dʰeh₁- (“to put, place, set”), thus the original sense to "set as one's own", as in the later formed suificō.
- De Vaan (2008) rejects this etymology on the grounds that a following front vowel ē should have blocked the *swe- > so- shift. Instead he derives it from Proto-Indo-European *sel- (“place, habitation”), via the iterative *sol-eye- "to occupy habitually, inhabit" or directly from Latin solum (“base, ground; country”) - cf. the similar semantic relationship between habitō and habitus.
