Этимология (Английский)

From Middle High German vāhen, from Old High German fāhan, a strong verb with past forms fieng, gefangan, from Proto-West Germanic *fą̄han, from Proto-Germanic *fanhaną. The present stem fang- is derived from the past forms. This development spread from Middle Low German vangen to Central German dialects of early modern German (compare already Old Saxon fangan alongside fāhan). The same happened in hängen (< hāhen), in which, however, the development was reinforced by the existence of two variant verbs and therefore established itself much faster than it did in fangen. (Still today foo is used in many dialects of Swiss German.) Cognate to German Low German fangen (“to catch”), Dutch vangen (“to catch”), Swedish få (“to get, receive”), West Frisian fange (“to catch”), Danish få (“to get, receive”), English fang (“to lay hold of”), Albanian peng (“to hinder, hold captive”).
