Etymology

From phrases of the type det är ödet, where the word has been reinterpreted as the definite article of a neuter noun öde, but is originally the neuter of an obsolete adjective öden, from Old Swedish ø̄þen, from Old Norse auðinn 'destined, fallen to one's lot, granted', formally a participle of an obsolete verb related to auðr (wealth), ultimately from Proto-Germanic *audanaz. See: Old Norse Nouns 'auðinn'.
