Pronoun [Danish]

IPA: /vɛmˀ/, [ˈʋemˀ], [ʍemˀ] Forms: hvad [neuter], hvis [genitive]
Rhymes: -ɛmˀ Etymology: Originally, the dative of archaic hvo, from Old Danish hwa, hwo, oblique hwem, genitive hwes. In Old West Norse, the nominative and accusative of this pronoun has been replaced by another pronoun, hverr, but the dative and genitive are still extant: hveim, hves. From Proto-Germanic *hwaz (“who”), cognate with English who, German wer, Gothic 𐍈𐌰𐍃 (ƕas). The pronoun goes back to Proto-Indo-European *kʷos, *kʷis.
