Etymology

Inherited from Middle French soin, from Old French soing (“care”), from Frankish *sunnija (“worry, care, concern”), from Proto-Germanic *sunjō, *sunþijō (“truth, care, responsibility”), derived from Proto-Indo-European *h₁sónts (“being, true”), from *h₁es- (“to be”). Cognate with Old High German sunna, sunne (“truth, need, necessity, apology, justification”), Old Norse syn (“denial”), Gothic 𐍃𐌿𐌽𐌾𐌰 (sunja, “truth”). More at sooth.
