Etymology[edit]
Related to Proto-Iranian *vaiδa-, and traditionally considered to be inherited from Proto-Indo-Iranian *HwyadʰH- (“to cut, pierce”), from Proto-Indo-European *h₁wyedʰh₁- (“to separate, divide”). However, considered by Cheung and, with reservation, Mayrhofer, to be from Proto-Indo-European *wyedʰ- (“to shoot, take aim, hit, wound”).[1][2] Compare Old Armenian վէրք (vērkʻ, “wound”), an Iranian borrowing, as well as certain Germanic forms like Old English wītan (“to blame, reproach”) and German entwischen (“to escape, flee”), which Cheung derives from *wyedʰ- rather than *h₁wyedʰh₁-.
