Old Norse
Etymology
From Proto-Germanic *wesaną, from Proto-Indo-European *h₂wes-. Compare Latin Vesta (“goddess of the hearth”), Sanskrit वसति (vásati, “dwell”). Some forms are suppletive and instead derive from Proto-Indo-European *h₁ésti. Evolved to younger variant vera. The form est could be explained by the etymology which Prokosch and Noreen offer (the original second person singular es + -t from the analogy of preterite-present verbs and/or the accretion of the second person singular nominative personal pronoun). The resemblance of these forms to the present plural forms erum, eruð, eru is probably coincidence; the vowel /e/ of the Old Norse forms is better accounted for if these are descended from Proto-Germanic *izum etc. with Old Norse lowering of *i > e _*R (< *z).[1]
