Etimoloji (İngilizce)

Ortaçağ İngilizcesi öğesinden devralındı: stiff

Eski İngilizce öğesinden devralındı: stīf

Batı Frizcesi ile aynı kökten türemiştir: stiif

Felemenkçe ile aynı kökten türemiştir: stijf

Norveççe Bokmål ile aynı kökten türemiştir: stiv

Almanca ile aynı kökten türemiştir: steif

Latince ile aynı kökten türemiştir: stīpes

In summary

From Middle English stiff, stiffe, stif, from Old English stīf, from Proto-West Germanic *stīf, from Proto-Germanic *stīfaz, from Proto-Indo-European *steypós.
See also West Frisian stiif, Dutch stijf, Norwegian Bokmål stiv, German steif; also Latin stīpes, stīpō, from which English stevedore.
The expected Modern English form would be /staɪf/; /stɪf/ is probably originally from compounds such as stiffly, where the vowel was shortened before a consonant cluster.
