Etymology

    Possibly reanalyzed from a compound or suffixed verb *h₂éydʰh₁eti, from *h₂ey- (to burn; fire) +‎ *-dʰh₁- (to put, set, later resultative suffix), literally to put to fire.[2] For the root, see also *h₂éyos ((copper?) metal, ore), *h₂éyr̥ (day, morning) and Proto-Germanic *aisǭ (fireplace). Alternatively, the root can be identified as *h₁ay-, to be warm, hot,[3] but this root is also contested and poorly evidenced.

    Root

    *h₂eydʰ-[3][4][5]

    1. to ignite
    2. fire
