Etymology

1. From earlier *ϝῑ́ς (*wī́s), from Proto-Hellenic *wīs, from Proto-Indo-European *wéyh₁s, from *weyh₁-. Cognate with Latin vīs.
2. The -ν- (-n-) in the oblique stem can be ultimately derived from an original accusative *(ϝ)ῑ́ν (*(w)ī́n) that came to be analogically extended to*(ϝ)ῖνᾰ (*(w)înă). The starting point may have been reanalysis of *(ϝ)ῑ́ν (*(w)ī́n) as (ϝ)ῖν’ ((w)în’) before a vowel. Compare τῐ́νᾰ (tĭ́nă) as a form of τῐ́ς (tĭ́s), also Ζῆνᾰ (Zênă) and other collateral forms of Ζεύς (Zeús) built on the stem Ζην- (Zēn-). See: Latin Nouns 'vīs'.
