Etymology

Unknown. This specific form of the term is possibly an accusative singular suffixed with *-πŒ„πŒŒ (*-em). The term overall possibly derives from Proto-Italic *wektis, from Proto-Indo-European *wΓ©Η΅Κ°-tis, Proto-Indo-European *weΗ΅Κ°-. If this theory is accurate, the term would be cognate with Latin vectis and Sanskrit ΰ€Šΰ€’ΰ€Ώ (ūḍhi). Alternatively, possibly from Proto-Italic *ag-ti, from Proto-Italic *agō, from Proto-Indo-European *hβ‚‚Γ©Η΅eti, from Proto-Indo-European *hβ‚‚eΗ΅-.
