Proto-Germanic
Etymology
Probably from Pre-Germanic *poyH-, o-grade of Proto-Indo-European *peyH-, with uncertain element -t-. One tentative suggestion is that the -t- goes back to the zero-grade of *deh₃- (“to give”), which would give a Pre-Germanic form of *poyHdh₃os, with a meaning of "fattened up", from "to give to eat".[1]
Pronunciation
- IPA(key): /ˈɸɑi̯.tɑz/
