oidid
Old Irish
Etymology
The original meaning was to "pay (attention)," which could be from an earlier *ó(i)did, possibly from the causative Proto-Indo-European *Hi̯oudh-ei̯e-, from *Hyewdʰ- (“moving straight”), from *h₂yew- (“upright, straight”). The semantic development would be from "to turn (one's mind) toward)" to "to pay attention," similar to the Latin verbal phrase anim(um) adverto (“I turn my mind toward”). If so, cognate with Latin iubeo (“I authorize, make legitimate”).[1]
