Etymology 2

[edit]

From Proto-Balto-Slavic *in; compare Old Prussian en (“in, into”), Proto-Slavic *vъ(n) (“in, into”) from Proto-Indo-European *h₁én, *h₁n̥; compare Ancient Greek ἐν (en), Latin in, Proto-Germanic *in. The discrepancy between the u-vocalism seen in Slavic and the i-vocalism in Baltic is unclear, but both forms can be derived from the zero-grade.[1] Latvian ìe- displays a full-grade and is confined to nominal compounds. Compare Lithuanian pri̇́e- / pri-, núo- / nu- and pó / pa-.
