Etimologia (Inglese)

Ereditato da tedesco medio alto: jest

Ereditato da tedesco antico alto: *jest

Affine olandese: gist

Affine inglese: yeast

In summary

From Middle High German jest, gest (“foam”), from Old High German *jest, *gest, from Proto-Germanic *jestuz (“fermentation; fermentative matter”). The form Gischt (instead of expected *Gest, *Jest) is probably onomatopoeic, though it could alternatively be of Alemannic German origin. Cognate with Dutch gist, English yeast.
