Proto-Slavic

Etymology

• Milleit, Berneker (favoured by Vasmer, Trubačev (ESSJa)): From regular assimilation of cluster *-bv- → *-b- from Proto-Slavic *ob(v)ida < *o(b) +‎ *viděti (“to see”).
• Miklošič: From *o(b) +‎ *bida, the later presumably related to Proto-Slavic *běda (“harm, trouble”), Lithuanian baĩdas (“scare”). Favoured by some early scholars (Schmidt, Uhlenbeck, Mladenov, Preobražensky).

^* -asъ is the expected Balto-Slavic form but is found only in some Old Czech documents; -axъ is found everywhere else and is formed by analogy with other locative plurals in -xъ.
^** The second form occurs in languages that contract early across /j/ (e.g. Czech), while the first form occurs in languages that do not (e.g. Russian).
