sechs
See also: Sechs
Central Franconian
Alternative forms
Etymology
From German sechs, from Old High German sehs, from Proto-Germanic *sehs, from Proto-Indo-European *swéḱs. The now marginal variant sähs is the native form, since Old High German -hs- regularly develops into [s] (see Lahs, Ohs, wahße). Compare also fönnef (“five”) and sibbe (“seven”), which are non-native forms, too.
