Etimología (Inglés)

Heredado de neerlandés medio: wit

Heredado de Old Dutch: *wit

Heredado de Old Dutch: *witti

Cognado con inglés: wit

Cognado con alemán: Witz

In summary

From Middle Dutch wit, from Old Dutch *wit, from Proto-West Germanic *hwīt, from Proto-Germanic *hwittaz. The geminate is unexpected as the usual Proto-Germanic form is *hwītaz, from Proto-Indo-European *ḱweytos (“shine; bright”).
The geminate is sometimes explained as being the result of Kluge's law, thus from a pre-Germanic *kweyd-nos.
