[ˈsu.oː]
Etymology

From Proto-Italic *sūō, perhaps from earlier *sūjō, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *syewh₁-, but there is debate about how this resulted in the Latin phonetics. Cognates include Sanskrit सीव्यति (sī́vyati), सूत्र (sū́tra, “thread, yarn, string; rule”), Lithuanian siūti, and Old English siwian (English sew).
