Proto-West Germanic

Etymology

From *hōd (shelter, protection, defense) + *-jan. Of uncertain ultimate origin regarding connections outside of West Germanic; often compared to Proto-Germanic *hattuz (hat, hood) or *hōdaz (hood), both perhaps from Proto-Indo-European *kadʰ- (to cover, protect),[1] but the combination of voiceless and aspirated consonants is not common. Perhaps a substrate word,[2] or developed from a causative Proto-Indo-European *koHtéyeti.[3]
