Prendë, e Premtë and Përende derive from Proto-Indo-European *pers-é-bʰ(h₂)n̥t-ih₂ (“she who brings the light through”), akin to Ancient Greek Περσεφάττα (Persephátta), variant of Ancient Greek Περσεφόνη (Persephónē). According to Hyllested, Premtë is primary, with Prende a result of influence from perëndi (the continuation of the Indo-European thunder-god). He posits that the Venus-like character in Proto-Albanian originally referred to a figure partly possessing Persephone’s features, and thus can give meaning to perëndoj (“to set of the sun; to disappear; to pass; go to the underworld”) as an inner-Albanian denominative verb ‘to act like Persephone’.
