Etymology number: 3

Noun

IPA: /axt/, [ʔäχt] Audio: De-acht.ogg
Etymology: From Middle High German *ahte (attested in Latinised forms like ahta, athta). Probably the same as etymology 3, referring historically to an area around a mansion, monastery, etc., in which the lord of that estate exerted certain rights otherwise exerted by the state or king; compare this sense in Bann (also Bannbezirk, Bannmeile). Alternatively pertaining to etymology 2 as “that which is subject to someone's care”. Semantically, it could also be a variant of Old High German ēht (“property, especially ecclesiastical”), from Proto-West Germanic *aihti, but the vocalism makes this unlikely.

Alternatively pertaining to etymology 2 as “that which is subject to someone's care”. Semantically, it could also be a variant of Old High German ēht (“property, especially ecclesiastical”), from Proto-West Germanic *aihti, but the vocalism makes this unlikely.",

Alternatively pertaining to etymology 2 as “that which is subject to someone's care”. Semantically, it could also be a variant of Old High German ēht (“property, especially ecclesiastical”), from Proto-West Germanic *aihti, but the vocalism makes this unlikely.",
