gauti

See also: Gauti

Lithuanian

Etymology

From Proto-Balto-Slavic *gáuˀtei, *gū́ˀtei, from Proto-Indo-European *gʷew(H)- (“to gain”). Cognate with Latvian gaut, gūt (“to catch, gain”) and (per Trubačev) Proto-Slavic *gyti, *guviti (“to acquire”). Outside of Balto-Slavic, likely related to Avestan 𐬔𐬏𐬥𐬀𐬊𐬌𐬙𐬌 (gūnaoiti, “to supply”).

Tentatively further compared with Proto-Celtic *boudi (“booty, loot”), of disputed origin.
