Etymology 2

Relic locative case of Proto-Indo-European *h₂ól-h₁n- (“that, previous time”) (< *h₂el- (“alien, other”)), cognate with Latin ōlim (“at that time”). Suffix perhaps identical with n-extension of Lithuanian pérnai (“last year”), Latvian pērn (“last time”), Proto-Germanic *fernaz (“recent, previous”). According to some interpretations, may be a 0-grade of the root that has yielded Ancient Greek ἕνος (hénos, “former time”).
