Adjective [Latvian]

IPA: [væts]
Etymology: From Proto-Balto-Slavic *wétušas, from Proto-Indo-European *wet- with an extra (adjectivizing) suffix -(e)s. The original meaning was “of (the) year,” “one year old” (opposed to one born now, recently), from which “older one.” It is also possible that the stem *wet- already had the meaning “previous, earlier,” with the meaning “year” being derived (e.g., “previous, earlier lamb” > “lamb from last year”); compare the meaning relation between Ancient Greek ἕνος (hénos, “old, first, former”) (< *sénos), δίενος (díenos, “two-year-old”). Cognates include Lithuanian vẽtušas, dialectal vẽčas, Old Church Slavonic ветъхъ (vetŭxŭ, “old, aged, ancient”), Russian ве́тхий (vétxij, “old, aged”), Ukrainian вітхий (vitxyj, “old, aged”), Bulgarian вехт (veht), Czech vetchý, Polish wiotchy, wiotki, Gothic 𐍅𐌹𐌸𐍂𐌿𐍃 (wiþrus, “one-year-old lamb”), German Widder (“ram”), Proto-Celtic *wetsis (Middle Irish feis, Cornish gwis, both “sow that has already given birth” < “from last year”), Hittite witt- (< *wet-), Sanskrit वत्स (vatsá, “year; calf”), *vátas-, Ancient Greek ἔτος (étos, “year”), dialectal ϝέτος (wétos), Latin vetus (“old, ancient”).

  "etymology_text": "From Proto-Balto-Slavic *wétušas, from Proto-Indo-European *wet- with an extra (adjectivizing) suffix -(e)s. The original meaning was “of (the) year,” “one year old” (opposed to one born now, recently), from which “older one.” It is also possible that the stem *wet- already had the meaning “previous, earlier,” with the meaning “year” being derived (e.g., “previous, earlier lamb” > “lamb from last year”); compare the meaning relation between Ancient Greek ἕνος (hénos, “old, first, former”) (< *sénos), δίενος (díenos, “two-year-old”).\nCognates include Lithuanian vẽtušas, dialectal vẽčas, Old Church Slavonic ветъхъ (vetŭxŭ, “old, aged, ancient”), Russian ве́тхий (vétxij, “old, aged”), Ukrainian вітхий (vitxyj, “old, aged”), Bulgarian вехт (veht), Czech vetchý, Polish wiotchy, wiotki, Gothic 𐍅𐌹𐌸𐍂𐌿𐍃 (wiþrus, “one-year-old lamb”), German Widder (“ram”), Proto-Celtic *wetsis (Middle Irish feis, Cornish gwis, both “sow that has already given birth” < “from last year”), Hittite witt- (< *wet-), Sanskrit वत्स (vatsá, “year; calf”), *vátas-, Ancient Greek ἔτος (étos, “year”), dialectal ϝέτος (wétos), Latin vetus (“old, ancient”).",

The original meaning was “of (the) year,” “one year old” (opposed to one born now, recently), from which “older one.” It is also possible that the stem *wet- already had the meaning “previous, earlier,” with the meaning “year” being derived (e.g., “previous, earlier lamb” > “lamb from last year”); compare the meaning relation between Ancient Greek ἕνος (hénos, “old, first, former”) (< *sénos), δίενος (díenos, “two-year-old”).\nCognates include Lithuanian vẽtušas, dialectal vẽčas, Old Church Slavonic ветъхъ (vetŭxŭ, “old, aged, ancient”), Russian ве́тхий (vétxij, “old, aged”), Ukrainian вітхий (vitxyj, “old, aged”), Bulgarian вехт (veht), Czech vetchý, Polish wiotchy, wiotki, Gothic 𐍅𐌹𐌸𐍂𐌿𐍃 (wiþrus, “one-year-old lamb”), German Widder (“ram”), Proto-Celtic *wetsis (Middle Irish feis, Cornish gwis, both “sow that has already given birth” < “from last year”), Hittite witt- (< *wet-), Sanskrit वत्स (vatsá, “year; calf”), *vátas-, Ancient Greek ἔτος (étos, “year”), dialectal ϝέτος (wétos), Latin vetus (“old, ancient”).",
