Dutch

[edit]

Etymology 1

[edit]

From Middle Dutch niwet, niet, from Old Dutch *niowiht, niewiht, from nio (never) + wiht (thing, creature). The former in turn derives from Proto-Germanic *ne (not) + *aiw- (ever) + *wihtą (thing).

It was originally a pronoun meaning "not a thing", and was later used to reinforce a regular negation. The pronomial meaning was lost in Middle Dutch. English not, and its older forms naught and nought, were formed in the same way, but "not" also lost its sense as a pronoun and became a negation adverb as in Dutch.

Pronunciation

[edit]
  • IPA(key): /nit/ (standard)
  • IPA(key): /ni/ (often, in fast speech)
  • Rhymes: -it

  1. not, no: used to express negation.
