"ester" meaning in Old French

See ester in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Verb

IPA: /esˈteːɾ/ (note: early), /eˈteɾ/ (note: late)
Etymology: From Late Latin or Vulgar Latin estō, from Latin stō. Forms in -ac- and -ui/-eü-/-i- originates from Vulgar Latin *statiō, *stūtum (perfect *stuī), all are from statum. The indicative present forms bear similarities with endings of the suppletive verb aler and must have contained from vois, the origin of -ois in estois and other forms, however, are unclear (see also Modern French vais). Compare with estre, whose later merged and resulting some forms reflecting the forms of ester.

The indicative present forms bear similarities with endings of the suppletive verb aler and must have contained from vois, the origin of -ois in estois and other forms, however, are unclear (see also Modern French vais).\nCompare with estre, whose later merged and resulting some forms reflecting the forms of ester.",
