Reconstruction:Proto-Slavic/zajьvъ
Proto-Slavic
Etymology
Formed as *zaj- + *-ьvъ.[1] Further from Proto-Balto-Slavic *źāˀj-, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *ǵʰh₂ōy-, from *ǵʰeh₂-.[2][3] An isolated Ukrainian formation, but it is of PIE origin. Perhaps the closest cognate is Ukrainian зойк (zojk, “scream; moan”) and зя́яти (zjájaty), зія́ти (zijáty, “to gape, to be wide open”). Per Melnychuk, of unknown origin.[4]
Adjective
*zàjьvъ[1]
