Etymology

[edit]
PIE word
*swé

From Proto-Indo-European *swet-. Includes the prefix *po-. Cognate with Lithuanian svẽčias (guest), Ancient Greek ἕταρος (hétaros, comrade). Per Derksen, the lengthened grade of the root is unexpected. The Indo-European root comes from the more basic root *swé (self) with a root extension.

Verb
