I don't quite see the semantical link between "to make use" and "to cut". --Fsojic (talk) 17:49, 21 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

It's probably Pokorny. Pokorny had a habit of creating roots out grades of other roots, which is generally not considered valid anymore as far as I know. Unfortunately many of our etymologies still have references to Pokorny... :/ —CodeCat 19:26, 21 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
