haereo

Latin

Etymology

From Proto-Italic *haizēō, from earlier *xaizējō (to differentiate it from a later form *haizēō if the shift */x/ > */h/ in the Italic languages already happened during late Proto-Italic); further origin is uncertain, but conjectured to be from Proto-Indo-European *gʰays- (“to adhere, to stick, to be fixed to”) (Pokorny lexicon p. 410). (Can this(+) etymology be sourced?)
