Proto-Italic[edit]

Etymology[edit]

From earlier *pawējō, from Proto-Indo-European *paw-éh₁-ye-ti, from *paw- (to strike, hit); for this see Latin paviō (to beat, strike). The sense development would be "to strike" > "to strike with fear".

Alternatively, *paw- is a homophonous but separate root meaning "to fear", and is perhaps cognate with Proto-Celtic *oβnus (fear).[1]

Verb[edit]

*pawēō first-singular present indicative

  1. to be afraid
