Latvian
Etymology
From Proto-Balto-Slavic *?éiw??, from Proto-Indo-European *?éy-wos, from *?ey- (“be located; camp, settlement; friendly; from the same home”) with a suffix -w? (from the same stem also Latvian saime (“household”)). The semantic change seems to have been “friendly settlement or household member” > “woman”. Cognate with Sanskrit ??? (?éva, “dear, friendly, honored”), Gothic ????????????????????-???????????????????????? (heiwa-frauja, “master of the house”), Old High German hiwa (“wife”), hi(w)o (“spouse; servant”), Latin civis (“citizen”) (previously “household member”, “villager”). As Latvian sieva gradually shifted its basic meaning to “wife”, a new term sieviete (“woman”) was coined (in the 19th century).
