The short vowel in the form sinn is probably due to merger with the Middle High German third-person plural sint. The -f in the imperative is of uncertain origin, perhaps from a gliding sound. The expected subjunctive is wéier, which is attested dialectally. The standard forms were formed anew from the preterite.
