Etimologie (Engels)

Geërf van Old Spanish: caber

Geërf van Latyn: capio

Verwante met Engels: have

Verwante met Spaans: cazar

Verwante met Portugees: caibo

In summary

Inherited from Old Spanish caber, from Latin capiō, capere (“take, hold, contain”), from Proto-Italic *kapiō, from Proto-Indo-European *kh₂pyéti, from the root *keh₂p- (“to seize, grab”). Compare English have, capture, catch and chase. See also Spanish cazar, cachar.
The 1st person singular of the present reflects an original */ˈkai̯po/, through metathesis from Latin capiō (compare Portuguese caibo). Similarly the preterite continues */ˈkau̯pi/, metathesis of a Vulgar Latin perfect stem *capuī (compare Portuguese coube).
