Pronunciation
Etymology 1
From Middle French guede, from Old French g(u)esde, gaide, wai(s)de (“woad, dye made from woad extract”) (compare Medieval Latin guaisdium, wai(s)da (“woad”)), from Gothic or an unknown East Germanic language *wai(z)da (“woad, pastel”), from Proto-Germanic *waidą, *waidaz (“woad”), from Proto-Indo-European *woydʰ- (“woad”), conflated with East Germanic *wizdils, *wizdila (“woad, weld”) (source of Medieval Latin uuisdile, ouisdelem, guisdil (“woad, pastel”)) from Proto-Indo-European *wis- (“colouring matter, dye, poison”). Akin to Old High German weit (“woad”), Old Frisian wēd (“woad”), Old English wād (“woad, woad-dye”). More at woad.
