hvenær in Old Norse

[Show additional information ▼] [Hide additional information ▲]

Etymology: Likely an exact cognate to Dutch wanneer (“when”). De Vries, however, prefers a derivation from hvé (“how”) + nær (“near”), with sense development "how near" > "how early" > "when". The first component is regardless related to Proto-Germanic *hwan (“when”). Etymology templates: {{cog|nl|wanneer|t=when}} Dutch wanneer (“when”), {{af|non|hvé|nær|t1=how|t2=near}} hvé (“how”) + nær (“near”), {{cog|gem-pro|*hwan|t=when}} Proto-Germanic *hwan (“when”) Head templates: {{head|non|adverb}} hvenær
