[ˈsɛd]

Etîmolojî (Îngilîzî)

From Proto-Indo-European *swét / *swéd, ablative case of *swé (whence se, suus); and originally the same as the inseparable preposition sē- (properly, “by itself”, “apart”, hence, “but”, “only”, etc.). Compare with the semantics of English "only (that)..." (= "but...").
