Gothic

Etymology

From Proto-Germanic *twiz-, and doublet of π„π…πŒΉπƒ- (twis-). Since the form lacks the expected effects of Grimm's law, it has often been conjectured to have been borrowed from or influenced by Latin dis-; however it doesn't normally appear appended to roots borrowed from Latin, but instead shows correspondences with other Germanic terms prefixed with *twiz-. The voiced onset can thus be explained as irregular lenition due to the unstressed syllable. The exact details, however, are unclear. Cognate to German zer-.
