Etymology

Various influences, including German heben, Danish hæve and Old Norse hefja (cf. Norwegian Nynorsk hevja). All of these derive from Proto-Germanic *habjaną (“to lift heave”), whence also English heave, which was borrowed into Norwegian as the doublet hive. Ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *kh₂pyéti, and the root *keh₂p- (“to seize”).
