Etimologie (Engels)

From Proto-Italic *praiɣendō, equivalent to prae- (“fore-, pre-”) + *hendō (“to take, seize”) (not attested without prefix), from Proto-Indo-European *gʰed-; akin to Ancient Greek χανδάνω (khandánō, “hold, contain”), and English get. The vowel probably underwent regular reduction in prefixed variants (*-praind- > -prēnd-) and was backported into the base form. Related to praeda (“prey”) and hedera (“ivy”).
